Through Tryin'
Journey of Self-Discovery: Embracing Change
Lyrics
Early in the mornin' wake up with a headache
Waking up early with a headache, possibly from the aftermath of a night of indulgence or excess.
And now it's pushin' past 12:30 I don't know where I've stayed
It's past 12:30, and the singer is unsure of their location after a night of uncertainty.
I hope I didn't get you angry when I came in so late
Expressing concern about potentially upsetting someone by arriving late.
But I just couldn't bear to go home in my compromised state
Choosing not to go home in a compromised state, indicating a reluctance to face personal issues.
Because I've been feeling kind of strange and lately I'm a new man
The singer feels different and transformed recently, becoming a new person.
But at a loss for all my efforts 'cus I don't have a plan
Despite efforts, the singer is uncertain about the future due to a lack of a clear plan.
And I'm just grabbing for a feeling so I'll know who I am
Searching for a sense of identity by grasping for a feeling.
It's up to… You, 'cause I can't think for myself
Acknowledging a dependence on someone else to make decisions.
And darling you can't be too good for my health
Addressing the impact of the relationship on the singer's health.
And that's the truth, I'm not too sure how I felt
Expressing uncertainty about emotions and feelings.
But now I'm through… tryin'
Deciding to stop trying, suggesting a resolution or acceptance of the situation.
I came to your apartment but your bedroom was closed
Arriving at the person's apartment but encountering a closed bedroom.
And with your girlfriend on the sofa I collapsed on the floor
Finding the person with their girlfriend, leading to a collapse on the floor.
But then my brain was off and racing on what's now through you're door
The singer's mind races about what could be happening behind the closed door.
And when I think of how we're talking you don't want me no more
Realizing that the person no longer wants the singer.
So I woke up feeling sick that's when I knew I should go
Feeling unwell and deciding it's time to leave.
And when I tried to tell you thanks you didn't pick up your phone
Trying to express gratitude, but the person doesn't answer the phone.
But I was only there for reasons that you couldn't have known
Being in the situation for reasons unknown to the person.
It must have been around 4:30 and I couldn't, couldn't go home
It's around 4:30, and the singer can't go home for some unspecified reason.
I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Repeating the phrase "I'm tryin'" suggests ongoing efforts or struggles.
I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin', I'm tryin'
Continuation of the struggle or effort expressed in the previous line.
Cause you let me in too…
Highlighting the role of the person in the singer's life.
You, 'cause I can't think for myself
Reiterating dependence on the person for decision-making.
And darling you can't be too good for my health
Stating the potential negative impact of the relationship on the singer's health.
And that's the truth, I'm not too sure how I felt
Reiterating uncertainty about emotions and feelings.
But now I'm through… tryin'
Finalizing the decision to stop trying, suggesting resolution or acceptance.
It's up to you, 'cause I can't think for myself
Repeating the idea of dependence on the person for decision-making.
And darling you can't be too good for my health
Reiterating the potential negative impact of the relationship on the singer's health.
And that's the truth, i'm not too sure how I felt
Restating uncertainty about emotions and feelings.
But now i'm through... tryin'
Confirming the decision to stop trying and move on.
