I Tried

Covering my eyes

Covering up my ears

I don’t want to know anything

I don’t want to hear anything

All I did

Everything I’ve done

It was all for you

I did the best I could

I tried

But I cried

How can you be so selfish?

Did the desire take over?

Or did the fire die out?

Can’t you see

I did everything I could

I tried

I cried

The flames

They burned down our foundation

Built the house together

Now it’s all up in smoke

All I did

Everything I’ve done

It was all for you

I did the best I could

I tried

I cried
