Текст песни How Did You Try? - Evyenía

I never got an I'm sorry from you
Guess you didn't think you owed me that
Don't you see you're the star of the mess that you made?
I'd give you the Oscar but you'd say I'm the actress right?

I wish you tried
Not the way you said you did
The way you tried
To make time to mountain bike
Each dead end job where you spent the night
'Cause through each hoop you made me jump
I was ride or die

I wish you cared
Not the way you claimed you did
The way you care
About making your own music
But you treat love like it's irrelevant
Clearing brush but not the air
Damn, why is this so hard to write?

I wish you felt
Something close to what I did
I wish you weren't
So afraid of togetherness
I wouldn't have drowned you, no
I would have lifted you up
Why did you have to go and fuck this up?

You didn't share your pain and let me hold it
And maybe I'm insane 'cause I kept trying
And yeah, even today, I would keep trying

How did you try?

Oh, tell me
How did you try?
Did you ask about my dreams
Spend time time with my friends and me?
Oh, tell me
How did you try?
Did you get in therapy?
Let me meet your family?
How did you try?
How did you try?

You said you wanted to be better
For your sisters and your brother
All the people that love you
But what about me?
Was it 'cause I held a mirror up
Of a reflection you didn't want to see?

Got rid of it
Got rid of me

But you've never touched me on a beach in Santorini
You never watched me on a stage singing so freely
Do you know what it's like to love me?

How did you try?
How did you try?
When you didn't even try
To know me
