Contextual Analysis of "i've tried" in Lyrics

i'm quite convinced though that this is all happening to me

looking the other way

there's only so much one can really take

nothing is better than staying the same

to keep from going crazy

i've tried to. i'm trying

you want me to forget that we've never met

but i haven't yet

start

but nothing will give way at all

i can't drink you away

i've tried jim

i can't drink you away

i've tried jim

start

to get you off my mind

all your cheating and lyin'

tried real hard to understand you somehow

lord

now watch me rise

nothing seems to be going my way

i've tried it all

i'm so percocet in my ways

the pain i've caused always set in stone

baby

cried

gonna blow for you

i've tried

gonna blow for you

i've tried

i'm good at leaving

to keep 'em all satisfied

i'm good at leaving

to keep 'em all satisfied

but i'll always have my pride

shying away from danger

start

don't you just believe it's time
