I tried Lord knows I've tried to better myself To change my ways and look to better days No longer living in hell My eyes blinded by the sight of children crying The sound of bones breaking as they die (I know) this wasn't meant for me (I know) that this wasn't the life for me For me I hate the man that I've become Can't stand to see just what I've done I feel my soul is wearing thin As these bodies blow in the wind The weight my shoulders carry has brought me to my knees I'm lost, can't find a way to escape Set me free (I know) this wasn't meant for me (And I know) that this wasn't the life for me For me I hate the man that I've become Can't stand to see just what I've done I feel my soul is wearing thin Now as these bodies blow in the wind I hate the man that I've become Can't stand to see all that I've done I feel the rope is tearing in Now as my body blows in the wind The Wind
