Trying Lyrics by Cotta

2022

[Verse 1]
I'm burning the candle at both ends
But I'm good at pretending so my friends think I'm fine
I'll take all the good with the bad days
Put the anxiety in it's place this time

[Verse 2]
Forgot how to move at this pace
Bags on my eyes and my face tells the truth
But I'm burning the candle at both ends
Somebody tell me what happened when it got you too

[Chorus]
Never had guessed for the best of the best that the tank could run this low
I hit a wall after all my attempts and I'm begging to go homе and after
A hundred days away is what it's taken just to see
Wе've been trying harder than we should be

[Verse 3]
I'm noticing now I wake up tired
I've given up coffee but I'm wired when I'm numb
I'm tryna take baby steps forward all the while overthrowing order in the place I came from
I'm holding my spirit with gloves on
Ready to forgive it if it gives a little with no warning
Ohhhhhhh
I'm steadily removing the bandage
Trying to remember the adage, I'll feel better in the morning

[Chorus]
Never had guessed for the best of the best that the tank could run this low
I hit a wall after all my attempts and I'm begging to go home and after
A hundred days away is what it's taken just to see
We've been trying harder than we should be, yeah
We've been trying harder than we should be

[Bridge]
I appreciate the beauty of hindsight
And as I'm walking home alone in the moonlight I can move on
I'm doing all I can just to get by
But I've learned that it's a dance so I'll put my favorite shoes on

[Chorus]
Never have guessed for the best of the best that the tank could run this low
I hit a wall after all my attempts and I'm begging to go home and after
A hundred days away is what it's taken just to see
We've been trying harder than we should be, yeah
We've been trying harder than we should be, yeah
We've been trying harder than we should be
