Lyrics Dead End Road (Originals) - Alicia Keys

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)
Try to make it
When you're living right, but it's going wrong
We try (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
Could 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)
Try to make it
When you're living right, but it's going wrong
We'll try (try), yeah
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, baby)
Try, try, try, try, try
Oh, yeah, try, try, oh, try
