Tried To Understand [J Mascis Version]

I saw you at a party You were sneaking behind the bar Ever since I've known you then You've been covering up those scars I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand Always making fun of the ones Hell bent on buying their fate Humiliate their fantasies 'Cause it's an easier love to hate I know that you're softer than You're always making it seem But you only like pleasure and pain And nothing else in between I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand So you burned it down With your cold heart out And your brain sitting down on ice And you're dancing around in an empty club With tears falling out of your eyes And you're spinning out like a penny on the ground And around and around you go And around and around you go And around and around you go So you burned it down With your cold heart out Yeah, and you're spinning out like a penny on the ground So you burn it down You burn it down You burn it down You burn it down I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand I tried to understand (Tried to understand) (Tried to understand) (Tried to understand) (Tried to understand) (Tried to understand) (Tried to understand) (Tried to understand) (Tried to understand)
