I tried being good, but it never worked. But if I follow rules, there was no way I get hurt. But every time I let my guard down, I just let my heart down, oh. I could give until you're back down, run me dry till I tap out, ohh oh. I could really use some sleep, but you still won't let me rest. Must've fallen way too deep, no I'm drowning so blessed. No one said it would be easy, love isn't for the weak. But even in my strongest, you're the one I can't defeat, ohh oh. I tried being good, but it never worked. See, I was playing with fire, when I should let it burn. What's the use of being good? In love, there is no peace. Hey, heyy. Might as well be the bad, maybe then I'd find relief, ohh oh. I tried. I tried, I tried. Baby, you know that I tried. I don't know why I gave you my best, yes I did, yes I did, ohh, oh. I tried, I tried. Oh, I tried.
