"I Tried" lyrics

Do you miss me baby, or can I even call you that?
Send a couple texts then you barely even hit me back
Guess that's what I get, when I don't fight - my heart goes bad
Flip'n through the pages, look at all these memories
Trying to find what's best, all I find is what's bad for me
How'm I supposed smile, there's a world out there I can't see

Expectations on me, supposed to be something big
Something bigger than I can, who I was and who I am
I tried... I tried...

Ohh... I tried (I tried)
Ohh... I tried (I tried)

How'm I supposed to rise to the call'n
Darlin', you forget that I'm human
I still tried, can't fault me for that
Something big, something better, that's what you need
That ain't me, and you know - that's why you leave
Now we're both on our own and I'm lonely

Ohh... I tried (I tried)
Ohh... I tried (I tried)
Ohh... I tried (I tried)
Ohh... I tried (I tried)

I wasn't that real, even if you think I was though
Life was a facade, living like a big joke
Guess I should've know, actions speak louder than words
Knew your higher calling, tell me to let go now
Wait a couple minutes, breath and lets calm down
Can we calm down

Slow down
Slow down
Can you slow down
Slow down
I tried now
You know I tried now
They know I tried now
I know I tried now

Ohh... I tried (I tried)
Ohh... I tried (I tried)
Ohh... I tried (I tried)
Ohh... I tried
