Alicia Keys - Dead End Road (Originals Version) lyrics

My heart is heavy like a stone
Hot as Hell up in the cold
Loneliness is sleeping in my room
Love is empty on the plate
Nothing left to give or take
Waiting for the dawn to break in two

But the sun don't dry
Nothing
And the waterfalls
Keep coming
And tears keep breaking through

At least we'll try
Try to make it
When you're living right
But it's going wrong
We try
Try to make it
When you feel like you're living on Dead End Road
We still try
Try, try, try

If I should die before I wake
Would tears wash away mistakes?
My troubles should be made to fade to nothing
'Cause I don't want to be the one
To turn the lights off on love
I just wanna be above something

But the sun don't dry
Nothing
And the waterfalls
Keep coming
And tears keep breaking through

But at least we'll try
Try to make it
When you're living right
But it's going wrong
We'll try
Try to make it
When you feel like you're living on Dead End Road
We still try
Try, try, try

If we just try
If we just try
Something, yeah
At least we'll love
At least we'll love
Something
When you feel like you're living on Dead End Road
You gotta try, baby, try
Try, try, try, try, try, try (Try, baby)
