Tried Lyrics by BADBADNOTGOOD

Tried

2018

Painted a flower
Painted the sun
The lavender woman
Blocking my vision
My aching feeling
Killing the fun
Oh my, oh my
The pain inside

Fields of lilac
I’m undecided
Love defied that won’t grow
Need you so
Fields of lilac
Our worlds divided
Sky decided to fall
I need you so

I tried to find joy
I tried to find ease
When will the storm desist
August rain
Who is my pleading
The pain inside of me
Lord I have tried
Been holding it in
Both my hands were tied
I tried
I tried
I tried

Moon mirror
Make a new start
She’s losing her fever
Make him believe her
Silver ribbon
Take me apart
This lavender woman
Blocking my vision
Seeing you smiling
Playing the part
Oh my oh my
The pain inside

Fields of lilac
I’m undecided
Love defied that won’t grow
Need you so

I tried to find joy
I tried to find ease
When will the storm desist
August rain
Who is my pleading
The pain inside of me
Lord I have tried
Been holding it in
Both my hands were tied
I tried I tried
Lord I tried

I tried to find joy
I tried to find ease
When will the storm desist
August rain
Who is my pleading
The pain inside of me
Lord I have tried
Been holding it in
Both my hands were tied
I tried
I tried
I tried
