Trying To Get Through Lyrics - Hothouse Flowers

Spent a long time on my own last night 

I think I spent a little bit over the top 

It's just something in a bottle made me feel right 

And I think that's why I couldn't stop 

The man beside me had the warmest look of 

Understanding in his eyes 

As I went on about the laws, the barriers and things 

That came upon me and my kind 

I'm just trying to get through 

We have words but sometimes words say too much 

But they don't say enough 

The boy meets the girl, sometimes they sail smoothly 

And sometimes it's rough 

I remember like a little child 

Kicking against a stone wall that I built myself 

I won't give in now, won't feel guilty 

I'll just rise up, I'll have to be myself 

Yeah, I'm just trying to get through 

Trying to get through 

So help me, I'm trying to get through 

Can't you see I'm trying to get through 

Oh, help me through 

Trying 

So listen people what I tell you now 

Life is hard but it's worth keeping on 

Listen people what I can tell you straight 

It's not too late to 

Try and get through 

I'm just trying to get through 

So help me, help me 

Trying to get through 

Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to get through 

So help me, I'm trying to get through 

Understand why I'm trying to get through
