[Verse 1]
You are just a bee-sting
Swollen in my chest
Something must have died for
You to be my best yet

[Verse 2]
A new accomodation
To go out on my own
Civilised the stars that
Only shine alone

[Chorus]
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried

[Verse 3]
Bloated beating heartache
Your face singes mine
Mutual decision
To disconnect the phone-line

[Verse 4]
I reinforce the railway track
Which has sometimes stayed
But I made them too strong
For your wild ways, oh
[Chorus x2]
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried
