David Wax Museum At Least I Tried
[Verse 1]
Oh, my aging parents
Losing that sleep over me
Much to their embarrassment
I'm not where they thought I'd be
[Verse 2]
Oh, I was a dreamer
Dreamin' a life beyond my own
Sweep up all the streamers
The dream was overblown
[Chorus]
Well, I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
[Verse 3]
All the paths I did pursue
Now, they give off a different light
It's not enough to be true
You have to put on a show, put up a fight
[Chorus]
Well, I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
[Breakdown]
[Verse 4]
I'm no longer self-righteous
Not high on anybody's wars
My star's no longer the brightest
But at least I'm pointing north
[Chorus]
Well, I tried
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
[Chorus]
Well, I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
Tried and I failed
At least I tried
[Outro]
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
(Tried and I failed)
(At least I tried)
