Wrong Anyway

Spoke too soft, heard too loud
Left too late, stood too proud
Loved too thin to make it count

Built the steps, missed the climb
Wrote the lines, lost the time

Did it right, wrong anyway
Did it right, wrong anyway

Changed the beds, kept the ache
Called it peace, named it fake
Brushed the dust, left the stain
Said I’m good and missed the train

Did it right, wrong anyway
Did it right, wrong anyway
