Dear Deadly - I Tried

Drowning now
There's a hole in me and I can't get out
Filling up with so much doubt yet again
I try to stay afloat but all I seem to do
Is sink into the depths of my soul
I fight to catch my breath
I try and try again but
This is not the way to survive

Sometimes life is such a burden
We all have our cross to bear
Sometimes I can't see clearly
Never knowing who the fuck I am

I tried to be fair
But you won't comprehend
And I tried to be there
But you won't even care

Another day goes by
A stitch of thread in time
(And nothing's what it seems)
With each passing night
I waste away, I decay
I tried to read the writing in the stones and sand
But what the hell do they know?
I fight to catch my breath
I try and try again but
This is not the way to survive

Sometimes life is such a burden
We all have our cross to bear
Sometimes I can't see clearly
Never knowing who the fuck I am

I tried to be fair
But you won't comprehend
And I tried to be there
But you won't even care
I tried to be fair
But you won't comprehend
And I tried to be there
But you won't
Never knowing if you even care

I tried to kill this hunger
But It's coming back around again
And when I reach down deep inside
I find out who I really am

When will we wake up?
When will we learn?
The writing's washed away

I tried to be fair
But you won't comprehend
And I tried to be there
But you won't even care
I tried to be fair
But you won't comprehend
And I tried to be there
But you won't
Never knowing if you even care
