[Verse 1]

Oh, so, my love, this sleeping pill

Watch you through the night

And come the dawn, I'll be long, long gone

I tried, I tried, I tried

[Chorus]

I tried

I tried

[Verse 2]

We feed upon the broken branch

We kiss the stars goodbye

For the sun can't fight this overcast

I tried, I tried, I tried

[Chorus]

I tried

I tried

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]

The spider's web can’t break our fall

I whisper to the sky

I pray she takes you in her arms

I tried, I tried, I tried

[Chorus]

I tried

I tried

I tried

[Outro (Spoken)]

Storm warning in the sand

She evaporates beneath my fingernails

The road is lost underwater

She's running down the river with eels

She is lost to me
