TRIED

I tried to make it easy

I tried to make it straight

I tried to get your love to stay

but you just couldn't wait.

I tried, I tried with all might

but you just dropped the ball.

And when I said 'Im sick of trying

you tripped to make me fall.

I tried to say I love you back

& choked up on the fib

I tried to sing this love of mine

but never cracked the lid

I tried to see it from your view

to help me understand

I tried to wrap my head around

me trying to love this man

I tried to get it through my head

that this could never work

I tried, I tried to tell the truth

that your scent just makes kirk

Tried smiling, when I'm frowning

I tried rolling through the mud

I tried to change up my hair & shoes

I even poured out my blood

I tried dinner & the movies

I tried taking you trips

Tried to keep my patience up

even when you threw those fits

I tried giving you body

almost up to my soul

I tried to find your peace with in

& found a big gaping whole

See, I tried to run away

& you found me yet again

& I tried to say I love you

you know..... just as a friend

I tried to deal with drama

that had nothing to do with me

I tried to keep myself in focus

But you blocked my sight to see

So like I said I'm sick of trying

Trying to make it work

cuz all this pain from drama

Is really beneath my worth.

So try & take this notice

& put it through your head

& try try try again

like the lil engine said!
