Spend a long time on my own last night
I think I spent a little but over the top
It's just something in a bottle
made me feel right
And I think that's why I couldn't stop
The man beside me
had the warmest look of understanding in his eyes
As I went on about the laws the barriers and things
That came upon me and my kind
I'm just trying to get through
We have words but sometimes words say too much
but they don't say enough
The boys meed the girl
Sometimes they sail smoothly
and sometimes it's rough

I remember like a little child
kicking against a stone wall
that I built myself
I won't give in now
I won't feel guilty
I'll just rise up
I'll have to be myself
I'm just trying to get through
I'm just trying to get through

So help me
I'm trying to get through
Can't you see I'm trying to get through
Help me through

So listen people what I tell you now
Life is hard but it's worth keeping on
Listen people what I can tell you straight
It's not too late to try and get through
I'm just trying to get through
