The Get Up Kids

First topic message reminder :

"Coming Clean"

i found my place in the sun,
lied my way there.
i've looked in youre eyes,
i'm coming clean.
i've made up my mind.
to lie would be to compromise and i won't try.
i'm sorry.
i hope you'll forgive me
but what you want from me is killing me

"Pararelevant"

I could run a finger full
Temperance won't want to drive you home
She still holds out the little left to hold
Tiny eyes have told
Tiny eyes don't hide like you have yet
I'll tell you the lie
It doesn't have anyone impressed

You got something
Never live or die
Interceding
Try to fit the part
Play the role
Present tense
Little relevance

Then derelict skits disappear for a weekend
Try to clear your head
Rumor is you're running it ragged
The lies we know
The lies for amateurs at best
I've got the years
The years experience

You got nothing
Never even know
Interested
Doesn't make it so
Forget us all
Bless your friends
Little relevance
Play the role
Present tense
Little relevance

"Rememorable"

Speak here on your cue
Look in a camera find
See the slightest hue
In the soft focus lights
I wish this were all over
We're in for a long, long haul
If you won't

Fade away
Fade away
Before this all goes to waste

Your words in backwards prose
You have such a candid tongue
You don't sink like stones
Like all the other ones
Just set the bar so low
You don't have to fall afar

Fade away
Fade away
Before this all goes to waste

I fear that these words may prove fatal
I'm gonna lay all my cards on the table
Just look how far we've come
And you'll send us ten steps off
You've got it all
You've got it all so wrong
Why don't you go away
Why don't you go away
Why don't you go away
Why don't you go away
Why don't you go away
Why don't you go away

"When It Dies"

As it sharpens and it's shimmering
Every cut, a song
All the inner voices whispering
Say I've done it wrong

I got mine to say "Let it go when it dies"

As the pressure starts to escalate
Be your father found
Lack the patience when I'm desperate
Never make a sound

I got mine to say "Let it go when it dies"
You don't have a thing less

A little magic, little mystery
Never did no harm
I ain't talkin' if you twisted me,
You could break my arm

I got mine to say "Let it go when it dies"
You don't have
I got through a ways I can tell when it dies
I know how to take it

Better days, you bet on these
The company that you keep
[repeat until end]

"Keith Case"

You'll turn away
Calling back
As you run
Say it can
It can
It can be done
You're the last continental bastard chosen son

It may be a while
Maybe two
Maybe three
Till the chance
Till the chance
Till the chance we meet
Just to burn all the frames as to not repeat

Like anyone anywhere has the time
Take your place
Take a place
Take a place in line
I can spot a scab
I know my kind

I wanna say
Truly say
Know this well
Look how far
Look how far
Look how far we fell
You can lie to the liar
I know you'll tell

Turn around turn around
Say what you wanna say
Say what you came here for
Turn away turn away
From everything we want to wash
And anything that came before

You'll turn away
Calling back
As you run
Say it can
It can
It can be done
You're the last continental bastard chosen son

Turn around turn around
Say what you wanna say
Say what you came here for
Turn away turn away
From everything we want to wash
And anything that came before

"Better Lie"

This trespass
My weaker wings couldn't carry much of anything
But my temptress
You take a toll on the vengeances
Oh, merciful
Defenseless against this tide
It's the coming storm, the counter line
Replace this with just my hands
And just my will
You'll all be damned

One small lie
A test of faith
Just to testify attempted fate
Repentant, a fallen son
The die is cast
Thy will be done

You got caught in the better lie
You fell off at the fault line
Into the sun
You got caught in the better lie
You fell off at the fault line

There's no blood spilled upon this ground
A silent night without a sound
But past this, a worrying woe
This is not a trial

You got caught in the better lie
You fell off at the fault line
Into the sun
You got caught in the better lie
Into the sun
You fell off at the fault line
Into the sun
You got caught in the better lie
Into the sun
You fell off at the fault line

"Rally 'Round The Fool"

Rally 'round the fool
We all fall
The promise of a better life
But after all the lights gone off
You just lost your appetite
Desperate hearts, desperate hands
Left in the sea to sink where we stand
Rally 'round the fool
We all fall
It's criminal at any price

Rally 'round the fool
We all fall
Surely you don't really think
That you truly do deserve all
You didn't work for anything
But after tonight, play by the rules
Burning the bridge, pares the tool
Rally 'round the fool
We all fall
The only thing that's left to say

It's all over
It's all over
