Baby, I'M Trying
How to explain to a boy
in sentences
what I really mean?
I can't be afraid of
who's gonna hear me
I just need to let myself go
I'm not used to authority or headship
that I can trust
and it jumps me back a step every time
I fight with myself
in my head
that I don't know how to explain
This is how I lose people
and I don't know what to do
Part of me is just being stubborn
the other is a scared lost child
My fears hurt
and I'm back to the days of crying
but this is the only way
I'm gonna get through them
Please baby I'm trying
