Lyrics
You laid the colors down and you left them out And I tried to paint something that would make you proud But I ran those colors through with your very blood And I drove my bristles through the heart of your love Your love, oh, your love… So I closed my eyes and I held my breath I just tried to deny all of my regrets Oh, but no I can’t escape the weight of my hands I say, change, try to change – but I know that I can’t, I can’t I can’t, I can’t But I Try and I try and I try To make it right again Try and I try and I try To make it right again Try and I try and I try – to make it right again Try and I try and I try – to make it right again God knows how I try Oh, God knows how I try Try and I try and I try Try and I try…. You laid the colors down and you left them out And maybe my failed attempts can still make you proud
