Why Even Try Lyrics


Colony House Why Even Try


[Verse 1]
Everything that I
Ever start seems to
Have its day, then it
Falls apart like it's
Almost good and it's
Almost right but I
Miss the mark and I
Lose the fight

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So, why-y-y do I-I-I even try-y-y

[Chorus]
To keep my head held high
Arms open wide
Heart full, clear eyes
If I live, if I die
The damage is done
Why even try-y-y?

[Verse 2]
People say some things
Never change
The way they are is the
Way they stay
Wouldn't I like to
Disagree but I'm dancing with the fire
And the fire keeps burning me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So, why-y-y do I-I-I even try-y-y

[Chorus]
To keep my head held high
Arms open wide
Heart full, clear eyes
If I live, if I die
Oh, the damage is done
So why even try-y-y?

[Bridge]
Everyone scared that they're not enough
I'm just afraid that it's permanent
That I'm permanently broken
Permanently broken, ooh-ooh

[Verse 3]
Fragile hearts in these
Fragile times
Often break before they
Ever find that there's
Hope inside of these shadowlands
Written in the sky and stone and printed on our hands

[Pre-Chorus 2]
So why-y-y do I-I-I always
Measure the truth with the
Weight of a lie? Nothing's
Broken inside of me for good
I'm healing in time the way I should

[Chorus 2]
I can see it if I keep my head held hi-igh
Arms open wide
Heart full, clear eyes
All the doubts, all the lies
Are too heavy to hold so why even try-y-y? (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Outro]
Whoo! You don't have to do this all on your own (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This fragile life that you hold (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Is too heavy to carry alone so why even try? (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Mmm, all of the doubts, all of the lies (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
All of the fears, all of the tears tears that you've cried
Are too heavy to carry alone
So why even try?
