Couldn't Get It Right

You wake up in the morning

Look for a clue, something new

Turn on the radio and it's as dead

As the visions dying in your head

And when you were young

You had big ideas, no hidden fears

You had your heroes, they were walking tall

Now your devotion seems comical

So now you got older

And the world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter but your history

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right

You played the game as children

Didn't understand, life's not so grand

'Cause love hurts you and you could feel

Lonely, lonely, lonely one

Some people get it easy

They got it made, so unafraid

You'll be the fool and find the winner

He's gonna take it all

So now you got older

And the world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter but your history

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right

So now you got older

And the world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Hey, you got older and this world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter but your history

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right, no, no, no, no

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right
