"I'm Trying" lyrics

She said I'm not pointing fingers
And he said yes you are
Cause you wouldn't bring it up if you weren't
If I told you I'd be walking
Out in the dark night thinking
Would you take as truth this alcoholics word

I can't change what's done is done
But I can tell you this
Not a day goes by that I don't curses my self and all my sins
And I need you to hold on to while this part of me is dying
Though I haven't kicked the demons that haunt me
I'm trying, I'm trying

She sat down on the floor
And said I wish I was stronger
Right now I feel fragile as glass
I want to believe you
Believe what held you has freed you
And I hate these doubt that keep on coming back

My parents think I'm crazy for staying here this long
But there's nothing more I want for us
Than to prove to them they wrong
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to think you lying
Thought I haven't found the faith yet that I need
I'm trying, oh, I'm trying

He asked do you want me to leave
Cause if you do
You know I will
But she said
Much to his disbelief
No, I love you still

He said I don't know why I've been the fool
But I can't tell you this
Not and days goes by that I don't curse myself and all my sins
Than he dropped down to his knees
By now they both were crying
Said I haven't been the man I want to be
But I'm trying, oh, I'm trying
I'm trying
Oh Lord, I'm trying
