God Knows I Tried (Demo) Lyrics [Intro] Hmmm-mm Hmmm-mm [Verse 1] Sometimes, I wake up in the morning To red, blue, and yellow skies It's so crazy, I could drink it like tequila sunrise Put on that Hotel California Dance around like I'm insane I feel free when I see no one And nobody knows my name [Chorus] God knows I lived, God knows I died God knows I begged Begged, borrowed, and cried God knows I loved, God knows I lied God knows I lost, God gave me life And God knows I tried God knows I tried, God knows I tried, God knows I tried [Verse 2] Sometimes, I wake up in the morning To red, blue, and yellow lights On Monday, they destroyed me But by Friday, I'm revived Put on that Hotel California Wear my blinders in the rain I've got nothing much to live for Ever since I found my fame [Chorus] God knows I lived, God knows I died God knows I loved, God knows I lied God knows I begged Begged, borrowed, and cried God knows I lost, God gave me life And God knows I tried God knows I tried, God knows I tried, God knows I tried [Bridge] So let there be light Let there be light Light up my life, light up my life Let there be light, let there be light Light up my life, light up my life [Outro] God knows I tried, God knows I tried, God knows I tried God knows I tried, God knows I tried, God knows I tried God knows I tried, God knows I tried
Honeymoon has several demos (God Knows, The Blackest Day and Freak Like Me) produced by someone named Stint who had also remixed West Coast (it was officially released by Lana's label. This is one of those demos, and if you listen to Freak Like Me (I'm sure it's on RU-vid) you can hear there's a completely new bridge that was never heard before. That one also has a similar live drum/percussion throughout done by Stint.
