At Least I Tried
Tried writing songs for the dying man.
Tried writing songs that would make him stand.
I tried to reach out with a helping hand.
At least I tried.
I closed my eyes and tried to watch myself disappear.
The whole world shattered and I drowned in tears.
I tried to rebuild what once was here.
At least I tried.
Tried writing songs for the common man.
Tried writing songs that he could understand.
It's just the same four chords, just by a different band.
At least we tried.
It's the fear that's locked my door,
and the need of wanting more.
It's the place I can't explore,
that keeps me from growing up.
Tried writing songs that would make him stand.
I tried to reach out with a helping hand.
At least I tried.
I closed my eyes and tried to watch myself disappear.
The whole world shattered and I drowned in tears.
I tried to rebuild what once was here.
At least I tried.
Tried writing songs for the common man.
Tried writing songs that he could understand.
It's just the same four chords, just by a different band.
At least we tried.
It's the fear that's locked my door,
and the need of wanting more.
It's the place I can't explore,
that keeps me from growing up.
