Several times I've tried   Everything to make you feel all right   (turn it around) is anything working?    Several times I've died inside   And then I see you get uptight   (turn it around) we gotta get back   Turn it around      I've got time on my side   And you've got time on your side   Now it's only time to decide   Which side you're on   We've tried everything in sight   To make it turn out all right      Now is the only time   Now is the only time   Now it's time to try to turn it around      Several times I've wished   That everything would slip into a void   (turn it around) does it even matter now?    It's time to figure out   The things we want, and things that we'll avoid   (turn it around) we gotta get back   Turn it around      I don't grab for straws anymore   And you don't sink your claws anymore   But the more I think   The less I really know about myself   We gotta turn it around   Before it goes into the ground      Several times tried to turn it around   Several ways tried to turn it around      There's several morals and there's several plays   Several parts that anyone can try   It's enough to make you cry   I may not think that I'm right   But I know the things I've got   Are gonna turn out all right   We gotta get back, turn it around      I may not be anything   And you might be the biggest thing   But the biggest thing to me   Is making this thing work for life   We gotta turn it around   Before it goes into the ground
