Try as I might- written by Benjamin Sharkey

There's a storm in my heart.
It's like a hurricane;
I keep reaching for the stars
to pull back one grain.
There's a fire that runs deep into my soul
to hot to let it go.
Seems like this pain is the only thing I know.

(chorus)

So I keep dreamin'
So hard to stay awake
and I keep askin'
when this storm is gonna break

My life has been a battlefield
and it's so hard to see the light
but I know I'm gonna make it through
Try as I might
try as I might....

The Sands of time
Never slow for anyone
although it's late in the game
I feel my life has just begun
I've had so many ups and downs and
it's like I rode the rocky mountains
and only God knows where I'm going
from here
So I....

(chorus)

I don't ask for much
but this means the world to me
I'm running out of time
and loosing energy
How can I convince them
this is who I was meant to be

my life has been a battle field
so hard to see the light
although I know I'll make it through

Try as I might....
Try as I might...
