Trying

I'm trying to make
some sense of this world.
Trying to keep
holding on to chance.

Holding out
for some kind of
miracle.
But I'm falling
and falling
deeper into despair.


I'm trying to fly,
falling so fast.
Can't keep my head
out of the water.
Trying to stay
where I can breathe.
I'm drowning in my love
for you.


So I find myself trapped
between two evils.
Trying to choose
the better of the two.

But I'm stuck here
and I can't get out.
No matter
what I choose.


I'm trying to fly,
falling so fast.
Can't keep my head
out of the water.
Trying to stay
where I can breathe.
I'm drowning in my love
for you.


Now where should I stay?
Where should I go?
I'm trying
to hold on tight.
I need your hand
to steady me.
Please, help me.


I'm trying to fly,
falling so fast.
Can't keep my head
out of the water.
Trying to stay
where I can breathe.
I'm drowning
drowning,
drowning in my love
for you.

And I'm trying to stay,
but I'm floating away.
