I seem to have a history
at missing the point

And I'm trying to comprehend the things I write
and I'm living the lie that I cannot satisfy
Much against everyone's advice
I'm still trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying

Repeat from the beginning

Faith
cheated me of everything
but I laughed until
I stopped
publicity
very, very openly
I sat alone with my thoughts
for
... 
you

Time - to set the record straight
Time - to stop communicating
Please anticipate

And I'm trying to comprehend the things I write
and I'm living the lie that I cannot satisfy
much against everyone's advice
I'm still trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
