Tryin' To Try

Oh I’m spent…

[verse]

Bled every mile now i’ve fallen behind

Kinda left here wonderin’ if you’d change your mind

There’s scars…

From all the fights I’ve seen

Of promises cracked and hearts left mean

Bled every mile just to fall behind,

Gave it all - no mercy, no sign

[Chorus]

The ache, the wear, the bruise and despair

A love that broke ‘cause it tried to care

Not every loss comes from not enough

Some are caused from giving too much

[interlude]

I’m wasted…

[Verse]

Time ain’t kind to a soul that tries,

Built a dream just to watch it die.

You said, “Let go,” I said, “I can’t”

[Bridge]

Tried like hell, came up dry

Was scared of losin’ - and you know why

You were the last hope I had in my hands

Now I’m knee-deep in dreams of sand

[Chorus]

The ache, the wear, the bruise and despair

A love that broke ‘cause it tried to care

Not every loss comes from not enough

Some are caused from giving too much

[slide guitar]

[pre-chorus]

No big ending, no goodbye…

Just a whisper that used to cry.

Still I stand, though I don’t know why

Sometimes you break just from tryin’ to try

[chorus]

The ache, the wear, the bruise, and despair

A love that broke ‘cause it tried to care

Not every loss comes from not enough

Some are caused from giving too much

[outro]

Still I stand, though I don’t know why -

Sometimes you break just from tryin’ to try….
