[Music: Ward, Lyrics: Ward]
Ive 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, ohhhh
Theres so many things one can regret
and more that one denies
but Ill always have my pride
Dont you know that Ive tried
shying away from danger
hiding the tears Ive cried
brushing aside the anger
God only knows how Ive 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, ohhhh
So Ill ask my judge and jurors be
to take it all in stride
cuz its building up inside
Dont you know that Ive tried
shying away from danger
hiding the tears Ive cried
brushing aside the anger
Yes Ive tried
letting the rest think for me
swallowing all my pride
I never said Im sorry
but God only knows how Ive tried
Where is the sin?
The crime is knowing everything
So I often wonder:
Why should I care
when the crimes everywhere?
I might have been a fool
for giving more than I had
Dont you know what Ive tried
shying away from danger
hiding the tears Ive cried
brushing aside the anger
Yes Ive tried
letting the rest think for me
swallowing all my pride
I never said Im sorry
but God only knows how Ive tried
yes, God only knows how Ive tried
