Try
19. Pink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ever wonder 'bout what he's doing
How it all turned to lies?
Sometimes I think that it's better
To never ask why

Where there is desire, there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns, doesn't mean you're gonna die
You gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
You gotta get up and try, try, try

(Eh, eh, eh)

Funny how the heart can be deceiving
More than just a couple times
Why do we fall in love so easy
Even when it's not right?

Where there is desire, there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns, doesn't mean you're gonna die
You gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
You gotta get up and try, try, try

Ever worried that it might be ruined
And does it make you wanna cry?
When you're out there doing what you're doing
Are you just getting by?
Tell me, are you just getting by, by, by?

Where there is desire, there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns, doesn't mean you're gonna die
You gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
You gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try
You gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try





You gotta get up and try, try, try
Gotta get up and try, try, try

Overall Meaning

In Pink's song "Try," the lyrics address the struggles and challenges that come with relationships. She acknowledges the pain and disappointment that comes with realizing that the person you love isn't who you thought they were. Even though it may be tempting to give up and not seek answers, Pink sings that it's important to keep going and try to find a way to move forward. She uses metaphors such as fire to illustrate the passion and pain that can come with love. The chorus is a call to action for listeners to keep trying, even in the face of adversity.


Furthermore, Pink's lyrics also explore the complexity of the human heart and how it can lead us astray. The song questions why people fall in love so easily and why we sometimes stay in relationships even when they are not right for us. The lyrics suggest that we may be driven by desire and ignore warning signs, resulting in pain and heartbreak. However, Pink offers hope by emphasizing that we must try, even in the face of failure or turmoil. This message is a powerful reminder of the importance of resilience and determination in the face of adversity.
