Aaron Abercrombie - Everybody Tries Lyrics

Twenty three years and I'm looking back at the boy I was
All the things I am are thanks to all the things he's done
Twenty three years and I guess I finally realize
That I'm still looking at the world through that child's eyes

You can spend your days chasing nickels and dimes
But where I put my heart's where I put my time
Everybody lives and everybody dies
No one gets it right but everybody tries

I never thought it'd be so hard to be sober
But I'm wiser, I'm older, I look over my shoulder and
I fully understand the desire to be anywhere but where I am
So I'll take another puff and hope that it's enough
To make this place feel like home
'Cause I enjoy myself the most when I'm alone

Maybe that's the key to living life
Do what you want leave the rest behind
But when you put your love into stuff you can buy
You'll never be satisfied

You can spend your days chasing nickels and dimes
But where I put my heart's where I put my time
Everybody lives and everybody dies
No one gets it right but everybody tries

You can spend your days chasing nickels and dimes
But where I put my heart's where I put my time
Everybody lives and everybody dies
No one gets it right but everybody tries
Everybody tries
Everybody tries
