Doing It Right Lyrics by Going Spaceward

2020

When you turned seventeen
You said you'd follow your dream
And be an artist
You've found a comfortable niche
And though you're quite far from rich
Your life has started
Things are starting to click
Then you get very sick
The doc says cancer
Your passion barely pays bills
And you can't pay for the pills
Who has the answer?

Every hour of every day
Is so filled with these
Possibilities
In this life any choice you make
Can go up in flames
Can I win this game?

Am I doing it right
Doing it right?
I gotta put up a fight
Doing it right
Can I buckle down and save my world tonight?
Am I doing it right?

This girl is out of your league
But when you got on one knee
She said, "Let's do it"
You've got a mess of a life
But now your best friend's your wife
You might get through it
Months all fade into years
Then one day she's in tears
She says she's done pretending
She's gone and found someone new
He's ten times better than you
There goes your happy ending

Every hour of every day
We all flirt with these
These uncertainties
In this life any choice you make
Can go up in smoke
Is this some kind of joke?

Am I doing it right
Doing it right?
I gotta put up a fight
Doing it right
Can I buckle down and save my world tonight?

Half of the time
You feel you're out of your mind
You've got no clue where to look
There's no instructional book
You just stumble along
And maybe mumble a song
That you make up as you go
Because you just never know

You never know if they hate or if they like you
You never know if a move is the right move
You never know about the world, what it might do
'Cause sometimes, everything is going nice, and then
Like the best-laid plans of mice and men
It all blows up once and twice again
And every little decision that sounded great at the time
Has got you trapped in a cage of your own design
I feel like I'm a mix of Icarus and Sisyphus
I'm standing on the edge of this precipice and the question is

Am I doing it right?
Am I doing it right?
Doing it right

Am I doing it right?
Am I doing it right?
When the story ends will I say it was nice?
Am I doing it right?
