I'm trying to hold on
I'm trying so hard

when the wind blows up my nose
it smells like smoke

I'm trying to hold on
I know times are hard
It's barely enough to get by

I'm doing all I can, trying to be a man
but what do men know
we're told where to go and how to be

I'm trying to hold on
I know, times their hard

I'm trying to hold on
I'm trying so hard

it's barely enough to get by
but it's not hard being a guy
even when you're guilty
even when you're guilty
even when you're guilty

I'm trying to hold on
I know times are hard

when the wind blows up my nose
it smells like smoke
it smells like smoke
it smells like smoke

(I'm trying to hold on)
