Trying To Be More Pt 2 (RPM) feat. Gary Essex

Second of two songs on the album about trying to be a better person. The first was about people not trying, this is about struggling (and kinda failing) to be a better person than you have been. Slide parts courtesy of Gary…

Don’t think for a moment
I’m not giving my all
The problem I’ve had is
My all is too small
It isn’t a measure of how I feel
We dug up the treasure
But can’t break the seal

Some things are meant to be opened
Some things are meant to be dust

Know that I’m trying
Know that I care
And I feel like crying
Lying in the lies that I prepared

It would appear
I don’t even know
When I’ve been clear
And when my nose has grown
I’d understand if you walked away
And left a solitary man
With no words to say

And even if you never
Believe another word

Know that I’m trying
Know that I care
And I feel like crying
Lying in the lies that I prepared
