Her Side of Trying(response to 12Gauge858 I'm trying )

[Intro] I’m trying… I just pray that it’s enough… ⸻ [Verse 1] I see it in your eyes when you walk in Like you already think I’ll break us again You say you’re trying to understand But every time you reach, you miss who I am ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I wasn’t raised to feel like this Taught to swallow every risk I only show what I’ve been shown But I’m learning how to stand on my own ⸻ [Chorus] I’m trying… To love you and still not lose my light I’m trying… To hold you close and still hold me tight Every time you say you’re getting close It feels like you don’t see me at all I don’t wanna be the one who walks But I can’t keep shrinking just to talk ⸻ [Verse 2] You say that I’m distant, that I pull back But baby I’m just scared of the past I hear your voice and feel you reaching But I need more than your good intentions I want to stay and fight it through But I can’t be the only one who moves ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] I’m learning how to fix what’s me While asking what you need from me We’re breaking slowly piece by piece And I’m begging you to meet me halfway, please ⸻ [Chorus] I’m trying… To love you and still not lose my light I’m trying… To hold you close and still hold me tight Every word cuts a little deep When you don’t hear what I really mean I don’t wanna watch us fade like this I want to stay and fight to fix it ⸻ [Bridge] If I choose you… Will you choose to grow with me? Can we learn a different way? ⸻ [Final Chorus] I’m trying… And I believe that we’re enough I’m trying… I won’t give up on this love If loving you is hurting me too Then let’s change the way we always move I’ll hold your heart, you’ll hold mine deep Plant new roots and watch our love grow sweet ⸻ [Outro] I’m trying… Baby, let’s try together now… ⸻
