Tried To Be True Lyrics

From baby to best, there's no second test
Little storms destroy you
Here is the fame they promised to give you
Taking the place of my hand now

Did you try to be true?
What separates me from you now?
What separates me from you?

Did you borrow the soul, the soul that you sell now
What does your conscience tell you?
Where are the demons of your desire
Why does my love destroy you?

I said I tried to be true
What separates me from you now?
I said I tried, I tried to be true
What separates me from you now?
What separates me from you?

Tell me
Where is the fame, where is the fortune
Where is the world that denies you?
Who is to blame when my heart finally forfeits
To a world that could only misguide you

Did we try to be true?
What separates me from you now?
Did we try, try to be true
What separates me from you now
What separates me from you?

I bought my love a hunger, more precious than a stone
All the fame and flowers, did I misguide you?
