I\'m Trying My Hardest

by Alissa   Jan 6, 2005


Why am I this way?
Its not how I wanted to be.
I really want to be perfect for you,
Become a new and better me.

Why do you stay with me when I don't have much to give?
Is it because you know my feelings are strong,
And you don't want to hurt me?
Or is it because you love me too and you know I'm trying to be the best I can be?

The stunts I sometimes pull,
The dumb things I sometimes do,
Are just examples of what I am,
But they are never meant to hurt you.

Even though I know they do,
For some reason your still here.
And even though I dont deserve you,
It always seems you want to stay near.

Just remember that I want to change,
Into everything you want me to be.
But now you've got me wondering,
And I'm starting to think maybe your happy with me just being me.

I love you more than I can explain,
And I want to prove it to you,
But I think that might be impossible,
So just remember always that its true.

If something ever goes wrong,
And you decide you want to be free,
My heart will fall to pieces,
But I'll be content knowing you'll think of me.

I know I'm not everything you want,
And I know at times you probably hate me.
But I want to be your everything, as you are mine,
So I'll try my hardest to make you feel blessed-thats my only guarantee.

Why am I this way?
Its not how I wanted to be.
I really want to be perfect for you,
So I'm trying my hardest to become a new and better me.
