Get It Right Lyrics
What have I done? I wish I could run
Away from this ship going under
Just trying to help, Hurt 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 want to 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 undo 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 your good
Isn't good enough,
When all that you touch tumbles down
'Cause my best intentions,
Keep making a mess of things,
I just want to 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 isn't fair
Yeah I'll send down a wish,
Yeah I'll send up a prayer,
And finally someone will see, How much I care
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 want to 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.
Away from this ship going under
now I feel the weight of the world,
is on my shoulders
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 want to fix it somehow
Oh, how many times will it take for me,
To get it right, to get it right?
'Cause I can't go back and undo this,
I just have to stay and face my mistakes
I'll get through this
Isn't good enough,
When all that you touch tumbles down
'Cause my best intentions,
Keep making a mess of things,
I just want to fix it somehow
Oh, how many times will it take for me?
To get it right
Throw a punch in the air,
And accept the truth, that sometimes life isn't fair
Yeah I'll send down a wish,
Yeah I'll send up a prayer,
And finally someone will see, How much I care
And all that you touch, tumbles down,
'Cause my best intentions, keep making a mess of things,
I just want to fix it somehow
Oh, How many times will it take?
To get it right,
To get it right.

I like this song very much. Leah Michele's voice is definitely amazing. I think we all have times when we feel that no matter what you do, nothing goes right, you try to do things in the best way but you end up hurting the ones you love I think is also a song about redemption, about the sincere intention to get things right when you know you made a mistake
