Trying

I know that we're all trying,
but what if I can't keep trying this damn hard?
What if I let all of you down
'cause I'm not perfect like the stars?

I know you said we'll sing together,
and i'm trying so hard to believe..
but what if I need you so much more
than you'll ever once need me?

The water in the ocean's blue,
so are my eyes, and so are hers.
But blue is drowned out by the white
and so the ocean burns.

Confession: I can't keep this pace,
I'm scared to fall behind.
And all the things, the little things,
they keep getting caught up in my mind.

I really want a hug tonight,
I need to feel less small..
I know you're trying so damn hard,
but I'm too close to feeling like I'll fall..
