Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I go against the grain, but I don't know where I stand
I understand myself, but I don't know who I am
I think I understand addicts, but they don't understand me
Cause the high that I get is only suffocating
[Pre-Chorus]
Trying not to overthink, but also not suppress
Trying not to be too much but also not give less
[Chorus]
I'm trying my best
Hurt innerly, so it's not someone else
I'm trying my best
But I can't help but wonder for myself
I'm trying my best
So, in the end if I lose my way... through all of the mess
I was trying my best
[Verse 2]
I have emotions that I react from
The darkest of thoughts that I would never act on
I have everything a man could want... and I'm still afraid
Maybe it's time I say... I'm not okay
[Pre-Chorus]
Trying not to overthink, but also not suppress
Trying not to be too much but also not give less
[Chorus]
I'm trying my best
Hurt innerly, so it's not someone else
I'm trying my best
But I can't help but wonder for myself
I'm trying my best
So, in the end if I lose my way... through all of the mess
I was trying my best
