get it right

stuck in the prosthetic new wave

did i strike a single nerve?

is your heart still beating?

choke another second

watch your mouth

they're watching waiting for you

but you can't talk about it

step back a second to fixate

upon a twisted observation

that brought you to your knees

another fallacy

another waking moment of truth

no

you're not dead

no

not quite yet

this is your time

how far will you take it?

well as we carry along

daft and choking on words

poking head in harm's way

maybe some day i'll learn

and as we carry along

broken records and promises

that get in the way

have me hoping some day

i'll get it right

distracting lies that cry restraint

hang tight another sec

is your heart still beating?

focused on retraction

idle hands are washed up waiting for you

no second thought about it

remembering all that you taught me

provoked a numbing realization

that brought me to my feet

the only one who'll make you sorry

is the one that's stuck in your shoes

and it's you

no

you're not dead

no

not quite yet

this is our time

how far will you take it?

well as we carry along

daft and choking on words

poking head in harm's way

maybe some day i'll learn

and as we carry along

broken records and promises

that get in the way

have me hoping some day

i'll get it right

well as we carry along

daft and choking on words

poking head in harm's way

maybe some day i'll learn

and as we carry along

broken records and promises

that get in the way

have me hoping some day

i'll get it right

yeah

i'll get it right

yeah

i'll get it right

yeah

i'll get it right

yeah

i'll get it right

yeah

i'll get it right

yeah

i'll get it right
