How could a broken lamp still light up?

The spark’s been out since dawn

There’s nothing left inside of them to burn

They say that time will heal inside out

“Give it just six months more”

But truly is it “time” I’m waiting for?

If that’s the truth

I’ve nothing left to lose

I know I’m not my savior

Just someone needs savin’

I wish someone would tell me

There’s nothing I’ve done wrong

Why do I sing death

Unto my own soul?

Now everyone’s gone

Been feelin’ so low

Life will keep passing by

‘Least I could say

“I tried”

Some days I look into the mirror

“That man, he should be strong”

Yet here I am complaining in a song

If the roads could just be clearer

Then I wouldn’t even be here

To my friends, I’m sorry, but I just gotta go

‘Cause that’s the truth

I’ve nothing left to lose

I know I’m not my savior

Just someone needs savin’

I wish someone would tell me

There’s nothing I’ve done wrong

Why do I sing death

Unto my own soul?

Now everyone’s gone

Been feelin’ so low

Life will keep passing by

‘Least I could say

“I tried”

Would you even believe me if I cried? If you wish to give up, leave me a sign

Relivin’ through the motions till’ I die

Last night, cause I tried

I wish someone would tell me

There’s nothing I’ve done wrong

Why do I sing death

Unto my own soul?

Now everything’s wrong

Been feelin’ so low

Life will keep passing by

‘Least I could say

(I tried, I tried, I tried)

(I tried, I tried, I tried)

(I tried, I tried, I tried, yeah)

I tried, last night

Yeah, I tried
