Trying

Oh I can't get out

Invisible handcuffs locked on me

Been praying for my period all week

And relief that I just can't see

I question everything

My focus, my figure, my sexuality

And how much it matters or why it would mean anything

I can't keep it together

I've been better

I've been thinking about it every night

I'm trying, I am

I'm trying, I am

Trying to hide from my mind, I am

Trying all the time, I am

Trying to hide from my mind, I am

Trying trying

Why am I

I can't get out

There's no flawless education just a stupid degree

The feeling of growing so far from myself

I can't reach, I can't reach, I can't reach

So I brush it off, cause I want it bad

And there's no dusting up

When you want like that, here's a ship

There's a wreck, better keep yourself in check cause

All these loaded questions gonna eat you alive

I'm trying, I am

I'm trying, I am

Trying to hide from my mind, I am

Trying all the time, I am

Trying to hide from my mind, I am

Trying, trying

Why am I...?

If it counts for anything

I didn't want to

I'm just looking for clarity

To help me get through

If you're set in your ways

What can I do, Ease up

So that I can break it down for you can't

Feed a beast you

Leave unleashed it'll

Come right back to you

I'm trying

Trying to hide from my mind, I am

Trying all the time, I am

Trying to hide from my mind, I am

Trying, trying

Why am I...?

Why am I?

Why why?

Why am I?
