The Use In Trying

Alessia Cara

Just a jump away from where you wanna go
But you're too afraid of doing it alone
So getting half way there is all you've ever known
I've been down that road

Everyday is like you're playing in
A different game that you can never win
Hold your head up
You'll find your way home
You won't get what you give sometimes
When the dust done settles
And the smoke all clears up
There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find
Maybe that's the use in trying
There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find
Maybe that's the use in trying
There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find
Maybe that's the use in trying

Just a search away from what you wanna find
But digging through the dirt won't get you diamonds every time
Seeing the sun is a good enough reason to get through the night
So close your heavy eyes

And everyday is like a figure eight
Too impossible to navigate
Hold your head up
You'll find your way home
You won't get what you give sometimes
When the dust done settles
And the smoke all clears up
There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find
Maybe that's the use in trying
There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find
Maybe that's the use in trying
There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find
Maybe that's the use in trying
Maybe that's the use in trying
