I Try

I try to stand, I end up falling
I try to walk, I end up crawling
I try to do what I can
I try to be what they call a man
I try to end up not falling back
I try to get on the right track
I try to give all of me
I try to be what the world wants to see
I try to find the perfect wife
I try to have the perfect life
I try and try and try again
To be this world's perfect ten
