i had to try

some much to lose but so much to gain

i couldn't let it all just slip away

if i've just kept my mouth shut

i regret all the things undone

i didn't want to be asking what i've become

i knew you'd probably judge me

but

i had to try

i don't care if you never get me

i had to try

i came around

broke your walls down

wrong or right

i had to try

i made it count

cross your name out

wrong or right

i had to try

so much to prove and so much to save

i couldn't stand around while you slipped away

if i had just carried on and moved right along

i'd still be asking where did i go wrong

i knew you'd probably judge me but

i had to try

i don't care if you never get me

i had to try i came around

broke your walls down wrong or right

i had to try

i made it count

cross your name out wrong or right

i had to try

i came around

broke your walls down

wrong or right

i had to try

i made it count

cross your name out

wrong or right

i had to try

i had to try
