I Tried
(Katarina Henryson)
I didn't want to hurt you
I didn't want to hurt myself
You kept talking about
the trust we must have
But I am sorry to say
I couldn't play it your way
I wanted to be honest
but honesty can hurt too much
I was afraid of all
the pain it would cause
was afraid of what I knew deep down
and of telling it all to you
I tried... I tried... I tried!
I screamed and I whispered
I fought and I loved
I tried... I tried... I tried!
I tried a little more
wasn't fighting a war
There just wasn't any love in store
I had to betray you
Or I would have betrayed myself
You kept saying it was
the same old thing
But I'm afraid
I didn't see it that way
I know it may be wrong
to say I had to betray to be true
I admit I had run
out of things that were right
I just hope you can forgive
so we can both start to live
I tried... I tried...
