I Try

I try to keep the pain away

but only cause more

I try to make things easier

but only make things worse

I want you to be happy

I want to be happy

from the looks of it

we can't have it both ways

I care for you

but nothing seems to work out right

the way things used to be

is the way i want things now

nothing seems to be falling into place

but only falling apart

no mater how hard I try

I can't get things to work in my favor

the look in your eyes

is what got me through the pain

being with you 

is what made life worth living

I try to keep the pain away

but only cause more
