I'm trying hard to understand
I'm trying hard to do the things it takes to be a man

Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be
Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be

I'm trying hard to understand "and to know just who I am"
I'm trying hard to get a break or just to give a d___

I'm trying hard to get away "but I always seem to stay"
I'm trying hard to understand a f___ing word you say

Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be
Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be

Somebody help me
I'm in this mess and I'm slipping away
Somebody help me
I'm in this mess and I'm slipping away

I'm trying hard to understand "but I don't know if I can"
I'm trying hard to make the best out of this mess I'm in

Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be
Life's slipping away from me
I can't hold on I can't believe it
Life's slipping away from me
I can't hold on, I can't believe it
Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be

Somebody help me
I'm in this mess and I'm slipping away
Somebody help me
I'm in this mess and I'm slipping away

I'm trying hard to understand
