Dope

I'm trying hard to understand
I'm trying hard to do the things it takes to be a man
Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be
Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be
I'm trying hard to understand
And to know just who I am
I'm trying hard to get a break
Or just to give a damn
I'm trying hard to get away
But I always seem to stay
I'm trying hard to understand
The fucking words you say
Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be
Life's slipping away from me
It's not the way I thought it'd be
(Away from me)
Somebody help me
I'm in this mess and I'm slipping away
