WE TRIED TOO HARD...

We tried,we cried.we fought we lost,
we had true love but payed the cost,
forgetting how we should have grown
forgetting how true love was shown

loving each other like we had before
wanting to do all we could til no more
forgetting to be what we always had known
yet the end was just nearing,as our trust had been blown

see i love you,i loved you,i suppose always will
but i look at our lives and it makes me feel ill
the worry the stress the mad crazyness
the times when the nights turned to blood on your dress

the blue flashing lights,the fuk this aint rights
they guys in my bed and my shits all alights
the man with no clue with his fist in my face
desperation,cry for help,get me out of this place

the friends and ya family who just couldnt see
that i was just helpless,defenseless poor me
had nowhere to turn when i needed advice
had so much to think of,no way could i be nice

all i could think of was me and that girl,
thought bout it so much sent my head in whirl
sent myself crazy,worrying sick,mind all hazy
but all you could do was just dis me and slay me

so save me,brave me,from all that you say
for the truth will come out and you`ll all see one day
that ive got a heart thats so big and so strong
that i`ll stand and i`ll take all that you give for my wrong

and the test will then come,when its you who`s in need
and your looking for help and all you see is just me
and you think that i`ll laugh cos i dont give a fuk
but i pick you up,dust you off and i wish you good luck!
