Try As I Might

Please raise your head

Look in my eyes

Try not to judge

Despite my lies

Know I'm wrong

And a bit contrite

Fell again

But can't confide

So turn out the light

This troubled soul

Got off track

It weighs on my heart

While it takes flak

Please don't look back

Because it's hard

Letting you down

Yet I know

I failed to turn this around

Lost my sight

Of wrong from right

Try as I might

Look away

But hold on tight

I don't have the strength to say

Or do what's right

You know when it's right

Because I wanted

I wanted to stay

And I need

This madness to go

to go away

Now I'm all alone tonight

And I know I wasn't right

I'm losing control

I'm out of my mind

I was so wrong letting you down

And I'm sorry for being such a foolish clown

And if I could, I'd turn this whole thing around

You know that I would

If I could

Try as I might.
