Get Out of Your Own Way (Songs Of Surrender)

[Chorus]
Get out of your own way, ho-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way, ho-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way

[Verse 1]
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
We all walk the plank
Of liberty
A harbour in New York, she held the torch for me
Egality, she threw in some fraternity
An open hand she closed into a fist and a kiss
Who could resist? Oh

[Chorus]
Get out of your own way, ho-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way, woah-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]
I could sing it to you all night
If I could, I'd make it alright, alright
There's nothing stopping you that's outside
I can help you but it's your fight

[Verse 2]
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 till she got a smack in the mouth
And it all went south, baby
Freedom
I'm a slave who's lookin' for someone to lead me
I'm a master lookin' for someone to heed me
The promised land is there for those who need it most
And Lincoln's ghost said

[Chorus]
Get out of your own way, ho-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way

[Post-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Get out of your own way, ho-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way
Get out of your own way, ho-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Get out of your own way
