The simplistic chorus of Stan Kolev & 大野雄二's song "Try" conveys a sense of struggle and questioning for one's ability to love and be present for another person. The repetition of the phrases "How am I supposed to try" and "to love you and be by your side" emphasize the internal conflict and uncertainty of the singer. The use of the word "supposed" suggests a sense of obligation or expectation from either the other person or society, adding to the pressure and weight of the situation.
The overall tone of the song is one of contemplation and introspection. While the verses are dominated by instrumental elements, the chorus brings a focus on the lyrics and sentiment of the track. The sparse and melancholic melody of the song also supports the idea of uncertainty and sadness.
The simplicity of the lyrics in "Try" allows for a wide interpretation of their meaning. They may apply to any relationship where one struggles with their ability to express love and be present for their partner. It may also speak to larger societal expectations of what love should look like, causing doubt and feelings of inadequacy.
