Verso 1

I've searched for the answers
Been down every road
Have reached for the keys
Made it all about me
And spun out of control

Verso 2

Thought I took the right turns
Somehow I was wrong
Turns out that the Jesus
I needed was walking
With me all along

Refrão

Heaven knows I tried
And nothing I did ever made it alright
Wasting my time
Drinking from wells
That would always run dry

Pós-refrão

Bending and breaking
And chasing the highs
Was stuck in my ways
Til I laid down my pride
Oh it's like You knew
I couldn't save my own life
Heaven knows I tried

Verso 3

Tried trusting my feelings
Cause they said I'm okay
Oh but I should've listened
When You told me livin'
Without You I won't find my way

Refrão

Heaven knows I tried
And nothing I did ever made it alright
Wasting my time
Drinking from wells
That would always run dry

Pós-refrão

Bending and breaking
And chasing the highs
Was stuck in my ways
Til I laid down my pride
Oh it's like You knew
I couldn't save my own life

Ponte

Heaven knows I tried
Played all my cards
But going for broke
Didn't get me real far
There's nothing worth
Finding outside of Your heart

Refrão

Heaven knows I tried
You said Your way's better
I'm glad You were right
Yeah Heaven knows I tried

Pós-refrão

I'm bending and breaking
And chasing the highs
Was stuck in my ways
Til I laid down my pride
Oh it's like You knew
I couldn't save my own life
Heaven knows I tried
