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 fi 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 fate again?
'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 fi 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
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?
My best intentions keep
making a mess of things
I just wanna fi it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take
to get it right, to get it right?
