Get out of your own way, hey, hey
Get out of your own way, hey, hey
Love hurts
Now you're the girl
Who's left with no words.
Your heart's a balloon, but then it bursts
It doesn't take a cannon, just a pin.
Your skin's not covering
And resistance.
Love has got to fight for its existence.
The enemy has armies for assistance
The amorist, the glamorous,
The kiss, a fist,
Listen to this, oh
Get out of your own way, oh, I
Get out of your own way, oh, I
I could sing it to you all night, all night.
If I could, I'd make it alright, alright.
Nothing's stopping you except what's inside
I can help you,
But it's your fight, your fight.
Fight back
Don't take it lyin' down, you got to bite back.
The face of liberty's starting to crack.
She had a plan up
Until she got smacked in the mouth
And it all went south
Like freedom.
The slaves are lookin' for someone to lead them.
The master's lookin' for someone to need him.
The promised land is there
For those who need it most.
And Lincoln's ghost said…
Get out of your own way, oh, I
Get out of your own way, oh, I
I could sing it to you all night, all night.
If I could, I'd make it alright, alright.
Nothing's stopping you except what's inside
I can help you,
But it's your fight, your fight.
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
Blessed are the arrogant
For theirs is the kingdom of their own company.
Blessed are the superstars
For the magnificence in their light
We understand better our own insignificance.
Blessed are the filthy rich
For you can only truly own
What you give away
Like your pain.
