I Tried To Save You

I tried to save you,
When you cried I'd hold you,
When you spoke I'd listen,
When you hit me I'd take it,
When you fell I'd catch you,
I tried to save you,
When I held you you loved it,
When I kissed you you loved it
When I caught you you hung on,
I tried to save you,
When you said you hated me i understood,
When you slapped me on the cheek i never hit back,
When you said for me to leave i didnt listen,
I tried to save you,
I promised I would walk with you,
I promised I would hold your hand,
I promised I would care for you,
I promised I would never let go,
I tried to save you,
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry,
I really did try,
But you never believed me,
You took your life that morning,
I watched as they lowered your coffin,
I cried when no one else cared,
I stood there when everyone else left,
I fell to my knees,
I knew your pain now,
I understood,
We were both just broken hearts that the world would never remember.
