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
 You're not quite dead
 No not quite yet
 This is your time
 Just how far will you take it?
 As we carry along
 Daft and choking on words
 Poking head in harm's way
 Maybe someday I'll learn
 As we carry along
 Broken records and promises
 That get in the way
 Have me hoping someday
 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 quite 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 someday I'll learn
 As we carry along
 Broken records and promises
 That get in the way
 Have me hoping someday
 I'll get it right
 Well, as we carry along
 Daft and choking on words
 Poking head in harm's way
 Maybe someday I'll learn
 Well, as we carry along
 Broken records and promises
 That get in the way
 Have me hoping someday
 I'll get it right
 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
