I Tried

I tried being good
But it never works
But if I follow the rules
There was no way I'd get hurt
But every time I let my guard down
I just let my heart down, ooh
I could give until you're back down
Run me dry until I tap out, ooh oh

I could really use some sleep
But you still won't let me rest
Must've fallen way too deep
Now I'm drowning it's so hopeless
No one said it would be easy
Love isn't for the weak
But even in my strongest
You're the one I can't defeat, ooh oh

I tried being good
But it never worked
See, I was playing with fire
When I should just let it burn
What's the use of being good?
In love when there's is no peace
Hey, heyy
Might as well be the bad girl
Maybe then I'd find relief
Oooohhhh
I tried, I tried
Baby, you know that I tried
I don't know why I gave you my best
Yes, I did, yes, I did
I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried
Oh, I tried
