<b>Tryin' To Be Me</b> by <i>Sherrie Austin</i><br />

Back seat of a Nova

Footprints on the window

Sippin' on Boonsfarm

Wonderin' how far to go

30 minutes later

Not quite so naive

First scar in the battle

Of tryin' to be me

(Chorus)

Well I took a lot of wrong turns

I ran into some dead ends

I let some good people down

I found out who were my real friends

I don't know why it took so long

To learn to love me for who I am

I tried to be everybody else

But the hardest thing in the world it seems

Is tryin' to be me

Plates breaking in the kitchen

Back to sleeping on the couch

Seven years in the trenches

Ain't no easy way out

Forever wasn't quite as long

As I thought it would be

Another scar in the battle

Of tryin' to be me

(Repeat Chorus)

You can love what you have

'Til you've lost what you got

You can know who you are

Do you know who you're not?

(Repeat Chorus)

Oh I'm just tryin' to be me
