Lyrics
Try, try, try Try, try, try Try, try try
Please don't lose your head Down this rabbit hole Concrete wrap our legs When we try to move Times are overbearing Winning odds are slim Nothing is for certain (All we do is try)
Can't say, can't say If the skies above our heads will ever turn from grey Can't say, can't say, can't say What tomorrow holds today It's no guarantee our lives will change but (All we do is try)
Spirits flow through my body (try) I don't know stop, I go (try) Don't look around, get started You won't grow if you don't sow (try) Man, I don't need nobody (try) I'll do this on my own (try) We won't all make it sadly And that's just the way this goes
We used to be invincible We used to be so beautiful, my dear We had the world in front of us How did we ever end up here?
You always thought you knew (all we do) Just the thing to do Always thought this world (all we do) Would change its course for you Don't be discouraged, my dear (all we do) If the doors don't swing Hold on, keep on pushing
All we do is try Can't say, can't say If the skies above our heads will ever turn from grey Can't say, can't say, can't say What tomorrow holds today It's no guarantee our lives will change but (All we do is try)
How could I forget What I came here for? Concrete on my face I don't smile no more How could I forget What I came here for? Concrete on my face I don't smile
We used to be invincible We used to be so beautiful, my dear We had the world in front of us How did we ever end up here?
We used to be invincible We used to be so beautiful, my dear We had the world in front of us How did we ever end up here?
