But I try really hard.
I tried to look my best,
I even tried to starve.
I tried to act really nice.
I tried to act my best.
I tried not to fight with you,
I even tried to act like the rest.
I tried to act really brave.
I tried not to have any fears.
'Cause in our relationship, I've put my
Blood, sweat, and tears.
I may not have gotten your approval.
But I tried really hard.
I tried to get you to like me,
I even got you a card.
I tried to get you to look at me.
I tried to get your attention.
I tried to send you little notes,
I even got detention.
I tried my very best.
But it just wasn't enough.
Without you in my life,
It was really rough.
So when I held that gun that day,
I tried not to have any fears.
'Cause in our relationship, I've put my
Blood, sweat, and tears.
