They Tried Lyrics

they tried to tear you away

they tried to lie in your face
they tried to tip you off sweetly

they tried to get on your good side

they never got the picture

they never got the joke

they never felt your fire

they only saw the smoke

they tried to tell you what's right

they tried to push you around

they tried to be what you wanted

they tried to get you for nothing

they never got too conspicuous

they never felt quite right

they never knew your darkness
they only saw your light

they tried to make you out stupid

they tried to come on like cupid

they tried to tell you what's real

they tried to stay on your heels

they never knew what ticked you

they never knew for sure

they always said they picked you

they never knew what for

they tried to pick you apart
they tried to be your best friend

they never got the picture

they never got the joke

they never felt your fire

they only saw the smoke

but they tried they tried and tried

and they kept on tryin'

crying while they lied

they tried to top you off sweetly

oh they tried and tried

they tried to get on your good side

to get on your good side
