| We keep on putting these efforts into this | |
| It appears we've chosen to impress those who believe-- | |
| Those who believe everything is just alright, | |
| But within we know we're scared to be ourselves | |
| Chorus: | |
| This time, this time, | |
| Can we get it right now? | |
| Finally make it right now | |
| We seem to fight for what we are not | |
| And then pass it through a lie | |
| Tie the leaves on trees so they | |
| Won't come down, so they won't come down | |
| This time, this time, | |
| Can we get it right? | |
| They told us now, it wouldn't be too long | |
| But it's not too much to fight for this song | |
| We told ourselves everything would be okay | |
| But now it just seems so cliche | |
| Chorus: | |
| This time, this time, | |
| Can we get it right now? | |
| Finally make it right now | |
| We seem to fight for what we are not | |
| And then pass it through a lie | |
| Tie the leaves on trees so they | |
| Won't come down, so they won't come down! | |
| This time, this time, | |
| Can we get it right? | |
| The motion's measuring | |
| With every breath | |
| And I'm exhausted | |
| And alone | |
| It's piercing hope | |
| It's piercing hope | |
| So pick me up | |
| 'Cuz there's still hope | |
| There's still hope | |
| Chorus: | |
| This time, this time, | |
| Can we get it right now? | |
| Finally make it right now | |
| We seem to fight for what we are not | |
| And then pass it through a lie | |
| Tie the leaves on trees so they | |
| Won't come down, so they won't come down | |
| This time, this time, | |
| Can we get it right? | |
| This time, this time, | |
| Can we get it right? |
