Slipping Away

Im trying hard to understand
Im trying hard to do the things it takes to be a man
Life's slipping away from me its not the way I thought it be
Life's slipping away from me its not the way I thought it be
Im trying hard to understand
And to know just who I am
trying hard to get a break or just to give a damn
Im trying hard to get away
But i always seem to stay
Im trying hard to understand the fucking words you say
Life's slipping away from me its not the way I thought it be
Life's slipping away from me its not the way I thought it be
somebody help me now Im in this mess and Im slipping away
somebody help me Im in this mess and Im slipping away
Im trying hard to understand
but I dont know if I can
Trying hard to make the best out of this mess I made
Life's slipping away from me its not the way I thought it be
Life's slipping away from me its not the way I thought it be
Life's slipping away from me I cant hold on I cant believe it
Life's slipping away from me I cant hold on I cant believe it
Life's slipping away from me its not the way I thought it be
Somebody help me Im in this mess and Im slipping away
Somebody help me Im in this mess and Im slipping away
Im trying hard to understand
