​What’s Wrong Lyrics by half•alive

Conditions of a Punk

2021

[Intro]
The time's always right to fix what's wrong

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
So yippee ki-yay, it's not my blood but
Every single day, it calls my bluff
It's not okay, then it ain't quite done
Then it ain't quite done, no
The time's always right to fix what's wrong
The time's always right to fix what's wrong

[Verse 2]
Looking through a haze, I'm basing
Everything around me on traces
The criminal I've been chasing
Is wearing my shoes

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
So yippee ki-yay, it's not my blood but
Every single day, it calls my bluff
It's not okay, then it ain't quite done
Then it ain't quite done, no

[Bridge]
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)

[Outro]
The time's always right to fix what's wrong (Ooh)
The time's always right to fix what's wrong (What's wrong, what's wrong)
The time's always right to fix what's wrong (The time is right to fix what's wrong, what's wrong)
The time's always right to fix what's wrong
The time's always right to fix what's wrong (The time is right)
