Try

I never give up, I always try

even when I just want to die

The disappointment, the insults

from all surrounding adults

"why do you even try anymore?"

because there are things I want to restore

"I tried!" that's more than you can say

please leave me alone and go away

I'm trying to keep going, I'm trying keep sane

but the things you say mess with my brain

my facade will loosen and seldom will slip

somehow I manage to regain my grip

knowing this isn't where I belong

all I can do is try to stay strong

trying not to let words bring me down

when the times right I'll leave this town

but for now I'll give it my best

and try to ignore the pain in my chest

so for now I'll try and try and try

till the day I finally die
