The Use In Trying - Alessia Cara

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Just a jump away from where you wanna go

But you're too afraid of doin' it alone

So gettin' halfway there is all you've ever known

I've been down that road

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm

Every day is like you're playing in

A different game that you can never win

(Alone)

Hold your head up

You'll find your way home

You won't get what you give sometimes

When the dust all settles

And the smoke all clears up

There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find

Maybe that's the use in trying

Ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use), ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use)

There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find

Maybe that's the use in trying

Ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use), ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use)

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 diggin' through the dirt won't get you diamonds every time

Seein' the sun's a good enough reason to get through the night

So close your heavy eyes

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

And every day is like a figure eight

Too impossible to navigate

(Alone)

Hold your head up

You'll find your way home

You won't get what you give sometimes

When the dust all settles

And the smoke all clears up

There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find

Maybe that's the use in trying

Ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use), ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use)

There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find

Maybe that's the use in trying

Ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use), ah, ah-ha (Maybe that's the use)

There's pieces of yourself you're gonna find

Maybe that's the use in trying

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Maybe that's the use in trying
