Lyrics
Tried Too Hard
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I always took the wrong side of the high road
Always wondering what I'd leave behind
The thing I couln't find is a little peace of mind
Nothing left but losing on my side
It always hurts, but I never learn
If you play with fire, you could be the first to burn
Maybe I tried too hard
Maybe I was born to fail
Maybe all I've done is pave a path to hell
There's a girl I used to know
She dragged me down the road
Looking back, I see the signs that show
Maybe I tried too hard
Never found a place to lay my anchor
Every single slip-up I let slide
No matter how I try to fight the changing tide
I always end up rocking side to side
It always hurts, but I never learn
If you play with fire, you could be the first to burn
Maybe I tried too hard
Maybe I was born to fail
Maybe all I've done is pave a path the hell
There's a girl I used to know
She dragged me down the road
Looking back, I see the signs that show
Maybe I tried too hard
There's a girl I used to know
She dragged me down the road
And looking back, I see the signs that show
Maybe I tried too hard
