I'm trying
I'm trying
God I swear I'm trying my best

I'm breaking
I'm breaking
Someone help clean up the mess

I'm pushing
I'm pushing
Working through it all

I'm falling
I'm falling
Falling apart

It's pounding
It's pounding
This sewn up heart

I'm crawling
I'm crawling
Please help me up

I'm trying
I'm trying
I just can't get up

I'm crying
I'm crying
I have fallen into a deeper hole

I'm dying
I'm dying
Let rest this broken soul
