I've Tried - Unisonic

I’ve been down

Long and tedious roads

Stood alone in the dark

With all that I own

My agenda is open and simple:

I must survive

There’s so many things one can regret

And more that one denies

But I always have my pride

Don’t you know that I’ve tried

Shying away from danger

Hiding the tears I’ve cried

Brushing aside the anger

God only knows how I’ve tried

The words define

And occupy our mind

But the question remains:

Is this craving for freedom

Still what we strive?

For our hearts are torn with delusions

Of who we are

So I ask my judge and jurors be

To take it all in stride

'Cause it’s building up inside

Don’t you know that I’ve tried

Shying away from danger

Hiding the tears I’ve cried

Brushing aside the anger

Yes, I’ve tried

Letting the rest think for me

Swallowing all my pride

I never said I’m sorry

But God only knows how I’ve tried

Where is the sin?

The crime is «knowing everything»

So I often wonder

Why should I care

When the crime’s everywhere

I might have been a fool

For giving more than I had

Don’t you know that I’ve tried

Shying away from danger

Hiding the tears I’ve cried

Brushing aside the anger

Yes, I’ve tried

Letting the rest think for me

Swallowing all my pride

I never said I’m sorry

But God only knows how I’ve tried

Yes, God only knows how I’ve tried
