i tried everything
Foster Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cut the coffee for some tea
Cutting friends off who were mean
And i tried to get more sleep
I swear I tried everything they said it's supposed to work
How come no one told me as a kid that life's supposed to hurt
Yeah I heard that better days are right around the corner but
So now I walk around emotionless a hopeless mess
Drowning in this hopelessness
Pretending that I'm swimming let's see how long I can hold my breath
Before I hit the bottom floor
Hide away and lock my door and overthink my problems more
I just don't know why it's gotta be this hard to exist
There's nothing left that I can do to help I'm convinced, cuz
I swear I've tried everything
Cut the coffee for some tea
Cutting friends off cuz they're mean
And i tried to get more sleep
I swear I've tried everything and haven't seen a result
Wish I could go back to my teens don't wanna be an adult
My life just isn't how it seemed it'd be when I was a kid
Now when I wake up from my dreams
I wish that never woke cuz they're so vivid
But the second I get out of bed I watch it fade to monotone
Surrounded by the ones I love but in my head I'm all alone
I put my phone silent take a walk and then it starts to rain
Coincidence but ever since it happened haven't been the same
Why's it gotta be this hard to exist
There's nothing left that I can do to help I'm convinced, cuz
I swear I've tried everything
Cut the coffee for some tea
Cutting friends off cuz they're mean
And i tried to get more sleep
I swear I've tried it all
Got better sleep
Had therapy two times a week
I hit a wall and I broke to pieces
Still ain't gotten back on my feet
I don't recall feeling like myself
This medication I'm on's no help
I try to hide how I feel inside
But I'm losing grip of my mental health
Why's it gotta be this hard to exist
There's nothing left that I can do to help I'm convinced, cuz
I swear I've tried everything
Cut the coffee for some tea
Cutting friends off who were mean
And i tried to get more sleep
But the roots are planted so deep
Do you think that you could love me

Line by Line Meaning
I swear I've tried everything
I've exhausted all options
Cut the coffee for some tea
I made changes to my routine
Cutting friends off who were mean
I distanced myself from toxic people
And I tried to get more sleep
I prioritized rest and relaxation
I swear I tried everything they said it's supposed to work
I followed advice and suggestions from others
How come no one told me as a kid that life's supposed to hurt
I didn't anticipate the difficulties of adulthood
Yeah I heard that better days are right around the corner but
I've been told that things will improve soon
I peeked around it just to find out that I'm sort of fucked (damn)
I discovered that things are still difficult despite some progress
So now I walk around emotionless a hopeless mess
I feel numb and helpless
Drowning in this hopelessness
I am overwhelmed by feelings of despair
Pretending that I'm swimming let's see how long I can hold my breath
I try to fake through it, but it's not sustainable
Before I hit the bottom floor
Before I completely fall apart
Hide away and lock my door and overthink my problems more
I withdraw and ruminate on my troubles
I just don't know why it's gotta be this hard to exist
I struggle to understand why life is so challenging
There's nothing left that I can do to help I'm convinced, cuz
I feel powerless and hopeless
I swear I tried everything and haven't seen a result
I am frustrated by the lack of progress despite my efforts
Wish I could go back to my teens don't wanna be an adult
I long for the innocence and simplicity of my adolescence
My life just isn't how it seemed it'd be when I was a kid
My expectations for my adult life don't match my current reality
Now when I wake up from my dreams I wish that never woke cuz they're so vivid
My dreams feel more real than my waking life
But the second I get out of bed I watch it fade to monotone
My reality doesn't seem as vibrant or engaging as my dreams
Surrounded by the ones I love but in my head I'm all alone
I feel disconnected from those around me despite their support
I put my phone silent take a walk and then it starts to rain
I try to escape my problems, but they seem to follow me
Coincidence but ever since it happened haven't been the same
Something changed, and I can't figure out how to get back to my previous state
I swear I've tried it all
I've tried everything possible
Got better sleep
I improved my sleeping habits
Had therapy two times a week
I sought professional help
I hit a wall and I broke to pieces
I reached a breaking point and fell apart
Still ain't gotten back on my feet
I haven't been able to recover fully
I don't recall feeling like myself
I don't remember the last time I felt happy or content
This medication I'm on's no help
My medication isn't making a significant impact on my wellbeing
I try to hide how I feel inside
I pretend to be okay when I'm really not
But I'm losing grip of my mental health
My mental health is deteriorating
But the roots are planted so deep
My issues are deeply ingrained and hard to uproot
Do you think that you could love me
I am seeking love and validation from others

[Chorus]
I swear I've tried everything
Cut the coffee for some tea
Cutting friends off who were mean
And I tried to get more sleep (Yeah)
[Verse 1]
I swear I tried everything they said's supposed to work (Cut the coffee for some tea)
How come no one told me as a kid that life's supposed to hurt? (Cutting friends off who were mean)
Yeah, I heard that better days are right around the corner, but (And I tried to get more sleep)
I peaked around it just to find out that I'm sort of fucked (I swear I tried everything)
So now I walk around emotionless, a hopeless mess (Cut the coffee for some tea)
Drownin' in this hopelessness
Pretendin' that I'm swimmin', let's see how long I can hold my breath (Cutting friends off who were mean)
Before I hit the bottom floor
Hide away and lock my door (And I tried to get more sleep)
And overthink my problems more
[Pre-Chorus]
I just don't know why it's just gotta be this hard to exist (But the roots are planted so deep)
There's nothing left that I can do to help, I'm convinced (Do you think that you could love me?)
[Chorus]
'Cause I swear that I tried everything (Everything, everything)
Cut the coffee for some tea (For some tea, for some tea)
Cutting friends off 'cause they're mean (Who were mean, who were mean)
And I tried to get more sleep (Get more sleep, get more sleep) (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
I swear I tried everything and haven't seen a result (Cut the coffee for some tea)
Wish I could go back to my teens, don't want to be an adult (Cutting friends off who were mean)
My life just isn't how it seemed it'd be when I was a kid (And I tried to get more sleep)
Now when I wake up from my dreams, I wish that I never woke
'Cause they're so vivid (I swear I tried everything)
But the second I get out of bed, I watch it fade to monotone (Cut the coffee for some tea)
Surrounded by the ones I love, but in my head, I'm all alone (Cutting friends off who were mean)
I put my phone on silent, take a walk, and then it starts to rain (And I tried to get more sleep)
Coincidence, but ever since it happened, haven't been the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Why it's just gotta be this hard to exist? (But the roots are planted so deep)
There's nothing left that I can do to help, I'm convinced (Do you think that you could love me?)
[Chorus]
'Cause I swear that I tried everything (Everything, everything)
Cut the coffee for some tea (For some tea, for some tea)
Cutting friends off 'cause they're mean (Who were mean, who were mean)
And I tried to get more sleep (Get more sleep, get more sleep) (Yeah)
[Verse 3]
(I swear I tried every–)
I swear I tried it all, got better sleep
Had therapy two times a week (Cut the coffee for some tea)
I hit a wall and I broke to pieces
Still ain't gotten back on my feet (Cutting friends off who were mean)
I don't recall feelin' like myself
This medication I'm on's no help (And I tried to get more sleep)
I tried to hide how I feel inside
But I'm losing grip on my mental health (Whoa)
[Pre-Chorus]
Why it's just gotta be this hard to exist? (But the roots are planted so deep)
There's nothing left that I can do to help, I'm convinced (Do you think that you could love me?)
[Chorus]
'Cause I swear that I tried everything (I tried everything, I swear, yeah)
Cut the coffee for some tea (I tried everything, I swear, yeah)
Cutting friends off who were mean (I don't know what else to do)
And I tried to get more sleep (Get more sleep, get more sleep)
[Outro]
But the roots are planted so deep
Do you think that you could love me?
