The usual Tuesday night ritual of watching Glee with E, and I was totally blindsided and moved to tears by this song. Posting it makes me feel a bit like a teenager, but there's no way a teenager wrote this song.

GET IT RIGHT
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 wanna fix it somehow.
But how many times will it take?
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
and all that you touch tumbles down?
'Cause my best intentions
keep making a mess of things.
I just wanna fix it somehow.
But how many times will it take?
How many times will it take for me
to get it right?
So I throw up my fist
Throw a punch in the air
And accept the truth
That sometimes life isn't fair
I'll send out a wish and I'll send out 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 wanna fix it somehow.
But how many times will it take?
How many times will it take to get it right,
To get it right?

That is all.
