I got brought up for an award today
Wearing clothes I bought out in L.A
And back home, my mother's crying 'cause daddy's goin' blind
And it looks like sister's popping pills again
I don't think it ever ends, this feeling like you'll never win
Guess I don't mind it 'cause I just keep trying
I've been down this low before, fighting in a thousand wars
Not sure how far the line is, hoping to find it
I just keep trying
I just keep trying
♪
All my friends are unhappy, all my heroes are dead
The people tell me their problems, wonder why I don't rest
I'm trying to find my breathing, trying to find the meaning
This life will not come around again
I don't think it ever ends, this feeling that you'll never win
Guess I don't mind it 'cause I just keep trying
I've been down this low before, fighting in a thousand wars
I'm not sure how far the line is, hoping to find it
I just keep trying
I just keep trying
I just keep trying
I just keep trying
I keep trying (I keep trying) to hold my head up high
Through the storm (I keep trying)
Trying to find some place of my own (I keep trying)
Where life ain't as mean as it's been (ooh)
(I keep trying, I keep trying, I keep trying)
I keep trying (I keep trying) to soothe the savage sounds
In my mind (I keep trying)
Singing, "I've fallen too far behind" (I keep trying)
From the places I wanna go (ooh)
I don't think it ever ends, this feeling that you'll never win
Guess I don't mind it 'cause I just keep trying
I've been down this low before, fighting in a thousand wars
Not sure how far the line is, hoping to find it
I just keep trying
I just keep trying
I just keep trying
I'm not sure how far the line is
