(It starts with one)
One thing, I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time | | (All I know)
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away |
(It’s so unreal)
Really didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn’t even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go | | (Watch you go)
I kept everything inside and
Even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of the time I tried so hard |
Chorus :
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter | | One thing, I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard |
(I tried so hard)
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so | | (Got so far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me |
(In the end)
You kept everything inside and
Even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of the time I tried so hard | | I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter |
I've put my trust in you
Pushed out as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed out as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know | | I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter |
