I Tried Songtext
Took a break
Needed space
I could've begged you to stay
But if this is really what you want
Then who am I to say you're wrong

And maybe I misunderstood
I could've sworn that you said
"Baby no one knows me like you do"
And now it's like I don't know you

I'm pouring tears in a paper cut
You're walking away from us
Like you don't even know

I could've been someone who loved you
Could've been sitting in the passenger side
Making you laugh cause another year passed
And birthdays make you cry

I could've been someone who listened
Wanted so bad just to make it alright
I could've been someone who loved you
But now I'm just someone who tried

And I tried

Different clothes, different hair
I even tried not to care
I did anything to be your type
The version of me, just you liked

Cause neighborhoods and baby names
Yeah I thought we were close
But maybe I was miles ahead
Believing all the things you said

I'm pouring tears in a paper cut
You're walking away from us
Like you don't even know

I could've been
I could've been someone who loved you
Could've been sitting in the passenger side
Making you laugh cause another year passed
And birthdays make you cry

I could've been someone who listened
Wanted so bad just to make it alright
I could've been someone who loved you
But now I'm just someone who tried

And I tried
I tried and I tried
I tried and I tried
I tried mmmmm
