I Tried

Basic frames on a basic face
You see what you want now from a distance place
Even though I'm a half world away
I can feel your eyes still watching me

Nobody steals for nothing

I tried (don't leave me)
I lied (don't leave me)
But I tried (don't leave me)
Don't the best just go away?

I tried (don't leave me)
I lied (don't leave me)
But I tried (don't leave me)
No the good ones never stay

Destiny like the wood worn bottom of a ship
No rails and no sails and no air to push it
Even though there's no trust in your eyes
I can see the sun setting on a new disguise

Nobody steals for nothing

I tried (don't leave me)
I lied (don't leave me)
But I tried (don't leave me)
Don't the best just go away?

I tried (don't leave me)
I lied (don't leave me)
But I tried (don't leave me)
No the good ones never stay

All the things you never said
All the things you never did
All the hurt will never go
All the life you'll never know
You'll never know
You'll never know
