These Are Trying Times

Folder: 
2005 - 2006

Maybe we were trying too hard

In time, I guess, we’ll see each other

Either eye to eye or floor to knee

And every time between the time to times

You never ever seem to find what you want

Only more and more of what you need



These are trying times

In the hardest sense

Of describing

In rhyming lines

The tired sighs

The up-for-hire lies

And the pain of these crying eyes



Without straying too far away

From the day I found my peace-of-mind

I can say with certainty

That you meant everything

That you ever said to me

Even as you said to me, Goodbye



Maybe we were trying too hard

Without straying too far

To find something we already had



These are trying times

In the hardest sense

Of describing

In rhyming lines

The tired sighs

The up-for-hire lies

And the pain of these crying eyes
