Get it right

What have I done?
I wish I could run,
Away from this ship going under
Just trying to help out everyone else
Now I feel the weight of the world is on my shoulders
What can you do when your good isn´t good enough
And all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right, to get it right?
Can I start again, with my faith shaken?
Cause I can´t go back and endure this
I just have to stay and face my mistakes,
But if I get stronger and wiser, I´ll get through this
What can you do when you´re good isn´t good enough?
And all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right?
So I throw up my fists, throw a punch in the air,
And accept the truth that sometimes life is unfair!
Yeah, I´ll send down a wish and I´ll send up a prayer
And finally someone will see how much I care
What can you do when you´re good isn´t good enough?
And all that you touch tumbles down?
Oh, my best intentions keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take to get it right, to get it right?
I wish I could run,
Away from this ship going under
Just trying to help out everyone else
Now I feel the weight of the world is on my shoulders
What can you do when your good isn´t good enough
And all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right, to get it right?
Can I start again, with my faith shaken?
Cause I can´t go back and endure this
I just have to stay and face my mistakes,
But if I get stronger and wiser, I´ll get through this
What can you do when you´re good isn´t good enough?
And all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right?

And accept the truth that sometimes life is unfair!
Yeah, I´ll send down a wish and I´ll send up a prayer

Oh, how many times will it take to get it right, to get it right?
