Cavetown – I Promise I'm Trying lyrics
{Verse 1}
I'm not really sure if my words make sense to you
But I can't really find

Any other way to form these feelings into cubes
And sort them in my mind

The negative thoughts go on the left
And the happy things on the right
And there's a little corner saved just for you

Please let me know if you change your mind
Cause inside I'm falling
And I need you to pull me out of this decline
I realize how hard on you this must seem
But trust me
When I say its far, far worse for me

{Chorus}

Please, please be here for me dear
Cause I've never needed a friend more
And I can't stress enough how much it means to me that you're trying
And I don't mind if you can't hold me like you used to
Cause I've never hated myself more
But this is just a bump in the road and I promise I'm trying

{Verse 2}
Give me a moment to get my cards in line
Cause I'm still trying to figure out
In what kind of order I should set them out
If there was a way to explain everything without a word
I'd have a full house right now without a doubt


I'm trying to tear the wool from your eyes
But a part of me wants to let you be
Cause then you wouldn't see what I've become
I'm trying to shout but no sound comes out
It's like we're in a dream state
But I should've woken up, woken up by now

{Chorus}
Please, please be here for me dear
Cause I've never needed a friend more
And I can't stress enough how much it means to me that you're trying
And I don't mind if you can't hold me like you used to
Cause I've never hated myself more
But this is just a bump in the road and I promise I'm trying

    This song is really important to me and it always calms me down. To me, it talks about wishing the person you love could accept you for being the way you are. You wished you weren't that way sometimes, but it's just how it is. it's difficult for you to explain and make them understand and accept you. you know your relationship with them might never be the same after that, which is why you sometimes feel too scared to try explaining. You know they might feel horrible and have a hard time, but you've been trying and that it's even harder for you than it is for them.
