Trying - Jordan Davis

I've been having a hard time adjusting I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting I didn't know if you'd care if I came back I have a lot of regrets about that Pulled the car off the road to the lookout Could've followed my fears all the way down And maybe I don't quite know what to say But I'm here in your doorway I just wanted you to know That this is me trying I just wanted you to know That this is me trying They told me all of my cages were mental So I got wasted like all my potential And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad I have a lot of regrets about that I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere Fell behind on my classmates, and I ended up here Pouring out my heart to a stranger But I didn't pour the whiskey I just wanted you to know That this is me trying I just wanted you to know That this is me trying At least I'm trying And it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you You're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town And I just wanted you to know That this is me trying (And maybe I don't quite know what to say) I just wanted you to know That this is me trying At least I'm trying

You said you couldn't stay You've seen it all before, I know And sold you on their way Oh, honey, that's ok No harm, he's armed Settin' off all your alarms When I find out I hope it's you who set this trap And store fronts rarely change At least I'm on my own again Instead of anywhere with you Oh, tell me it's all the same And I've lost my page again I know this is surreal But I'll try my luck with you Oh, this life is on my side Oh, I am your one Believe me, this is a chance Oh-oh, oh-oh Let's see what is for sale He's trying not to give his job a chance Oh, it's never gonna be It's sad, but I agree The signals don't seem right It lasts for just one night and then I'm sorry that I said That we were just good friends No harm, he's armed Settin' off all your alarms Entranced, I can't be here in time I'll think about that And I've lost my page again I know this is surreal But I'll try my luck with you Oh, this life is on my side Well, I'm your one Believe me, this is a chance Oh-oh, oh-oh

My God, what does it mean When I call To talk And I fall apart If you won't pick up your phone Guess I can't Admit I'm in Over my head That I'm falling down that slippery slope and climbing back into your bed Please baby Let me go on living in the eye of the storm Please baby Let me go on thinking that I'm in control When I'm When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When he leans I lean Hanging on his candor Just another fan girl If he goes I follow, 'cause Maybe if I'm with him I won't get to thinking Please baby Let me go on living in the eye of the storm Please baby Let me go on thinking that I'm in control When I'm When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When he leans I lean Hanging on his candor Just another fan girl If he goes I follow, 'cause Maybe if I'm with him I won't get to thinking It gets harder and harder and harder to ignore The bad things When you keep on you keep on you keep on giving me things that ain't good It gets harder and harder and harder 'cause I'm starting to see What you're keeping from me And still I'm begging for more and more baby When I'm trying not to love you (When I'm trying not to love you) When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you When I'm trying not to love you (When he leans) (I lean) When I'm trying not to love you (Hanging on his candor) (Just another fan girl) When I'm trying not to love you (If he goes) (I follow, 'cause) When I'm trying not to love you (Maybe if I'm with him) (I won't get to thinking) When I'm trying not to love you (Trying not to love you) (Trying not to love you) When I'm trying not to love you (Trying not to love you) (Trying not to love) When I'm trying not to love you (Trying not to love you) (Trying not to love) When I'm trying not to love you (Trying not to love you) When I'm trying not to love you

You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Any place is better Startin' from zero, got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me, myself, I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just across the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs Finally see what it means to be living See, my old man's got a problem He lives with the bottle, that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his Mama went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said, "somebody's got to take care of him" So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it fast enough so we can fly away? Still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car We go cruisin', entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job So I work in a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me would find it I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away? You still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way
