I Tried

I tried, I tried to love you.

With patience, and honesty,

I tried, i tried to build a palace

From a ruin you see

It hurts, I mean it really hurts, to put into something so much

never again, will I lose myself, for someone else's love.

Cos let me tell you friends,

nothing hurts like that does,

no nothing hurts like that does.

I wanted to look up to you

I trusted in something blindly,

Cos I like to believe with child-like faith

That there is some good in humanity

I put on my brave face, as I'm walking away

You stopped listening, theres nothing i can say.

i've got my whole life ahead of me babe,

It's not some tragic ending,

You'll brush it off as the silent treatment

You'll accuse me of pretending.

You can be so cold and calculating,

Your attitude so manipulating.

I only feel sad for what could of been

Cos I recall,what I saw in you,

It's like you left the room one day

And came back in as somebody new

Since when was loving someone labour

You're so engrossed in yourself

that not even love could save you.
