[Verse 1]
I made the bed neat
Still slept in the cold
Paid every last bill
Still feel broke down low
I bit my tongue hard
Kept my face calm
Held the door open
Still got shut out
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why
It slips through my hands
Tell me why
I don't understand
I keep the rules
I take the long way
But the more I try
The more it breaks
[Chorus]
Everything right
Everything wrong
I do my best
It still comes out wrong
(comes out wrong)
I hold on tight
I sing this song
Doing everything right
But everything coming out wrong
[Verse 2]
I text back fast
You leave me on read
I show up on time
You move the thread
I clean the mess
Before they can see
Still one small stain
Looks bigger on me
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why
It slips through my hands
Tell me why
I don't understand
I keep the rules
I take the long way
But the more I try
The more it breaks
[Chorus]
Everything right
Everything wrong
I do my best
It still comes out wrong
(comes out wrong)
I hold on tight
I sing this song
Doing everything right
But everything coming out wrong
[Bridge]
Maybe I'm not cursed
Maybe I'm just tired
Maybe I've been bending
Till I got wired
I don't need perfect
I need one clean line
One good thing
That stays mine
[Final Chorus]
Everything right
Everything wrong
I do my best
It still comes out wrong
(comes out wrong)
I hold on tight
I sing this song
Doing everything right
But everything coming out wrong
(coming out wrong)
Everything right
Everything wrong
I do my best
It still comes out wrong
