What's Wrong
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Time’s always right to fix what’s wrong
Time is always right in past tense
Avoiding is my newest obsession
Started with the right intentions
But left ‘em on the shelf
So tell me how to live in tension
‘Cause every could’ve been kills when
Living here has been hell
And I can’t hold it myself
Mm-ma
The whisper in my heart, it could never speak up
The message in my chest gathered too much dust
I can’t afford the truth even if it’s unjust
Keep it top-shelf, keep it all locked up
So yippee ki-yay, it’s not my blood
But every single day it calls my bluff
It’s not ok, then it ain't quite done
Then it ain’t quite done
No
Time’s always right to fix what’s wrong
Time’s always right to fix what’s wrong
Looking through a haze, I'm basing
Everything around me on traces
The criminal I’ve been chasing
Is wearing my shoes
Nah
The whisper in my heart, it could never speak up
The message in my chest gathered too much dust
I can’t afford the truth even if it’s unjust
Keep it top-shelf, keep it all locked up
So yippee ki-yay, it’s not my blood
But every single day it calls my bluff
It’s not ok then, it ain't quite done
Then it ain’t quite done
No
Oh, my God, it ain't quite why
Hold on, it ain't quite love
Hold on, it ain't quite done
No
Oh, my God, it ain't quite why
Hold on, it ain't quite love
Hold on, it ain't quite done (it ain't quite done)
Time's always right to fix what's wrong (ooh)
Time's always right to fix what's wrong (what's wrong, what's wrong)
Time's always right to fix what's wrong (time is right to fix what's wrong, what's wrong)
Time's always right to fix what's wrong
Time's always right to fix what's wrong (time is right)
