get it right

"rachel, if you keep looking for that happy ending, then you are never gonna get it right."

is it true?

this is a song shared by lyn-xiu, and my heart echoes strongly with the lyrics, just like her. i guess we often think that we are alone, but we actually aren't.

i really don't care how many times it takes, as long as i get it right. :D



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?
When 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?
Oh, how many times will it take for me?
To get it right
To get it ri-igh-ight

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?
When 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?
Oh, 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
Yeah, I'll send down a wish
Yeah, I'll send up a prayer
And finally, someone will see
How much I care

What can you do when your good isn't good enough?
When all that you touch tumbles down?
Oh my best intentions keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take?
To get it right
To get it ri-igh-ight.

the dream

i have a dream, that is unfulfilled.




i have been dreaming and imagining of it for years,




5 , 10, 20 years have passed,




it is still clenched tightly in my fist,




i often wonder why it is so hard to let it go,




perhaps this is destiny,




and the nearer it is ,




the more i shudder for fear of letting it slip away from my bare hands.




persevere i shall,




nothing shall stop me,




from realising a dream that has been waiting for me ,




for 20 years.
