Get Out of Your Own Way (Songs of Surrender)

Get out of your own way

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Get out of your own way

Get out of your own way

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Get out of your own way

Love hurts

Love is the most meaningless of words

Love is a balloon but then it bursts

All it takes to lose it is a crank with a tank and we all walk the plank

Of liberty, a harbour in New York, she held a torch for me

Egalite, she threw in some fraternity

An open hand, she closed into a fist with a kiss

Who could resist? Oh

Get out of your own way

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Get out of your own way

Whoa

I can sing it to you all night

If I could I'd make it alright, alright

There's nothing's stopping you that's outside

I can help you but it's your fight

Fight back

Don't take it lying down, you've got to bite back

The face of liberty is starting to crack

She had a plan until she got a smack in the mouth and it all went south, baby

Freedom, I'm a slave whose looking for someone to lead me

I'm a master looking for someone to heed me

The promised land is there for those who need it most and Lincoln's ghost said

Get out of your own way

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Get out of your own way

I can sing it to you all night, all night

If I could I'd make it all right, all right

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

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Get out of your own way

Get out of your own way

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Get out of your own way
