[Verse 1: Kamau]
Will you ever forgive yourself?
Keeping you happy is a chore
You don't have to kill yourself
Maybe you give a little more

[Pre-Chorus: Kamau]
And nothing is certain
Maybe you'll never find your way
You're not a good person
But at least you tried today

[Chorus: Kamau]
You tried and, you tried and
You tried today
You tried and, you tried and
You tried today

[Verse 2: Kamau]
If you're a narcissist
Someone that loves you will let you know
Facing the consequence
Pick up the pieces as you go

[Pre-Chorus: Kamau, Ben]
Letting me love you
Is only as hard as you want to be
How can I trust you (You)
Until I know you tried for me? (Oh, you tried and)
[Chorus: Kamau, Ben]
You tried and, you tried and
You tried for me (Mm-mm-mm-mm)
You tried and, you tried and
You tried for me (To make sense of my mind)
You tried and, you tried and
You tried for me (Tried, tried, tried for me)
You tried and, you tried and (Ooh, you tried)
You tried for me

[Violin Solo: Christian]

[Chorus: Kamau, Ben]
(Mmm) You tried and, you tried and (You tried for me)
You tried for me
You tried and, you tried and
You tried for me
You tried and
