I Tried to Do the Right Thing
by Children 18:3

Album: On The Run

Lyrics:

Running over all the barriers I set
to keep an even keel to the pressure
Flooding over into basements getting wet inside, wet inside
And I've fallen in trouble
With all my plans and good intentions
Is there a momentary letup? I can't breathe
Or keep an even keel to the weather
"Sir, we can't sustain another hit like that, its devastating"

But every winter melts into a spring
Every break would mend if you'd just use the proper sling

I tried to do the right thing

I've got alot of little oceans I can't swim
Or seem to pull ahead in the desert
This might take some time
When I can't fit me into the puzzle
When its all green and I'm so yellow
Is there a momentary letup here?
I can't go on, can't push on
I wouldn't mention it except I think I'm lost-
Been lost so long

But every winter melts into a spring
Every break would mend if you just use the proper sling

I tried to do the right thing

Everyone gets knocked down
Keep calm and carry on
If you don't learn to endure heavy things
How can you ever hope to get strong?

Like every winter melts into a spring
And I can only keep on trying 'til these lungs won't sing

I Tried to do the right thing

Storm clouds are coming, rain drops are falling
Come inside, run inside
