Here’s a sad one I wrote a little while ago… I do hope the hope is evident. My friend Jack Burgess is playing that awesome upright bass. I sure love the sound of it with the uke. Kinda awesome that it has a bit of a space theme for this project, eh? Ummm… hope you dig!

WORDS

I am trying not to break
I am trying not to break
Flooded by endless waves
With only one escape
That I am trying not to take
Oh keep trying
Oh keep trying

I am trying not to break
I am trying not to break
My heart tugged towards the moon
This tidal force of doom
I am trying to live through
Oh keep trying
Oh keep trying

I am trying not to break
I am trying not to break
Magnetic energy
Flaring inside me
I am trying to release
Oh keep trying
Oh keep trying

BRIDGE (Ooo…)

I am trying not to break
I am trying not to break
Flooded by endless waves
With only one escape
That I am trying not to take
Oh keep trying
Oh keep trying
