I TRIED TO TELL YOU...

I tried to tell you I wasn't lying, 
but you kept pushing and I kept crying...
I tried to tell you I misunderstood,
but you didn't believe me and you never would...
I tried to tell you that I couldn't hear,
but you insisted that your words were clear...
I tried to tell you I made a mistake,
but you kept thinking that I was a "fake"...
I tried to tell you how sorry I was,
but you kept hitting me, just because...
I tried to tell you my love was real,
but you acted as if it was "no big deal"...
I tried to tell you that things were okay,
but you never listened to what I would say...
I tried to tell you and then I got scared,
but none of it mattered because you never cared!
