I Tried

I try to break the walls around your head
But it doesn't make a single dent

When it was just a distant story
I had no trouble listening
Another day
So far away
A line in time

But then I saw it for myself
I never thought I'd go to hell
I thought it was a fairytale
A fable in the night

I try to break the walls around your head
But it doesn't make a single dent
I try to softly cave the mold within
But it doesn't save a single sec

So when my strength runs dry
And down I lie
Just make sure you don't forget
I tried
I tried

I see the sun
I see the sun
Is that the sun
That's not the sun

I try to break the walls around your head
But it doesn't make a single dent
I try to softly cave the mold within
But it doesn't save a single sec

So when my strength runs dry
And down I lie
Just make sure you don't forget
I tried
I tried

In my heart and in my mind
I know I'm guilty
But what a crime
I need you to tell me

In my heart and in my mind
I know I'm locked up
And doing time
I need you to help me

I try to break the walls around your head
But it doesn't make a single dent
I try to softly cave the mold within
But it doesn't save a single sec

So when my strength runs dry
And down I lie
Just make sure you don't forget
I tried
