Get It Together
Ajapai & Mayhem Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That I'm waiting
For another lie
That I still somehow believe in
But I'm fading
And I know it won't be fine
I'm searching in the dark
And as the days go by
Tell me did I get it right
Tell me what I've heard a thousand times
Doesn't matter what you say
It doesn't make it feel a different way
I'm taking back the piece of me
That I left behind
Tell me did I get it right
Tell me did I get it right
Don't try to justify it
Can't deny it
Sick of all your bullshit
Don't even try to fight it
'Cause tonight it's
Out of reach and I'm
Searching in the dark
And as the days go by
I know it's torn apart
Tell me did I get it right
Tell me what I've heard a thousand times
Doesn't matter what you say
It doesn't make it feel a different way
I'm taking back the piece of me
That I left behind
Tell me did I get it right
Tell me did I get it right
'Cause I can't (cause I can't)
'Cause I can't let go of past mistakes
You can say that I'm too afraid to fall (too afraid to fall)
You made me
This way
And if I'm wrong then tell me now
I'm prepared to risk it all
Tell me did I get it right (can we, can we make it)
Tell me what I've heard a thousand times
Doesn't matter what you say
It doesn't make it feel a different way
I'm taking back the piece of me
That I left behind
Tell me did I get it right (Tell me did I get it right)
Tell me did I get it right
