Washington Square Park Lyrics By Get Up Kids

it's better than nothing
it's better than you can get
what more could you want, what more could you ask for?
living day by day is more than i can say about my life
living in denial, wipe taht stupid smile away
through that ring again
through that sick machine that doesn't make you any stronger
than you or anything you choose
it's not abuse that many people live through

My Apology Lyrics By Get Up Kids

you'll be accepting my apology for taking things too seriously
sometimes i'm old enough to to keep routines,
sometimes i'm child enough to scream for
everything i broke in two
you're barely missing me, i'm missing you and everything you do
i really do
my once photographic memory for recollection's sake is failing me
i can't remember tor the life of me
sometimes i can think to recite words that i read and rewrite
my pens paint people that i've proven wrong,
but we move on
get a job where i can tell all of my accounts of someone else
i'm quick enough to judge that they were wrong and that we knew it all along
sing a long long-winded song i would be content to hum along
if i state that my fingers know where to show what everyone should have known,
i'll let it go
hopefully you'll forget that words that i put in print
my luck, you'll change and have strength enough to walk away

Is There A Way Out Lyrics By Get Up Kids

If ever im wrong, whatever i do
If anyone asks, i will be hiding from you
If ever i speak, put words in my mouth
Its only speech and sound

Is there a way out?
I've got this blood on my hands
And if theres some safe ground
Im all for it

If ever untrue, then how would you know?
What would you do, where would you go?
If ever i lied, what would it be
If i were to die because you discovered me

Is there a way out?
I've got this blood on my hands
And if theres some safe ground
Im all for it

Is there a way out?
I've got this blood on my hands
And if theres some safe ground
Im all for it..

I'm A Loner Dottie, A Rebel Lyrics By Get Up Kids

Come tomorrow.
I'll be on my way back home.
In the morning,
call from a roadside telephone.
One night,
doesn't mean the rest of my life.
If I go it's not impossible,
but possible is probably wrong.
So, let go because I'm afraid to try.
I'll keep my hands by my side.
I won't come back.
I hope someday you'll understand.
I want to try and make it right,
but I don't know if I can.
Last night,
everything was right and the rain was gone.
One summer's night's the only time we know.
Shut your eyes,
when you wake up I'll be gone.

Man Of Conviction Lyrics By Get Up Kids

God bless here's a man of conviction
With evidence enough to convict him so he stands by the
Side of the victim has strength enough to forgive him

Hopefully nobody saw him hopefully nobody saw him

The means justified by the ending sinner and saint for defending

The bastard by him that is bleeding throws salt in the wounds of the needy the blood from the
Cut that is seething he gasps for the air we are breathing

Hopefully nobody saw him, hopefully nobody saw him

The means justified by the ending, sinner and saint for defending

Our hero is gone

God bless here's a man of conviction
With evidence enough to convict him so he stands by the
Side of the victim has strength enough to forgive him
The bastard by him that is bleeding, throws salt in the wounds of the needy the blood from
The cut that is seething, the gasps for the air we are breathing

Hopefully nobody saw him, hopefully nobody saw him

The means justified by the ending sinner and saint for defending

Better Half Lyrics By Get Up Kids

i saw my better half
the better half of a decade
slip through my hands inside her hands inside my pockets
when she reached for her advatages i should have done something
i saw my baby boy digging his own hole
keeping alive family traditions
when he lied about intentions i should have done something
well
i blame myself for everything
it keeps my conscience clean
i've got bandages to prove it

Never Be Alone Lyrics By Get Up Kids

Never love anyone else a promise you made to yourself there's a box with his ring on the
Shelf and it's tarnished the burden of liars and thieves is the baggage that you brought overseas
No matter if you beg and you plead this is over

Whoa that's just the way it would go
No matter how the dice didn't roll you'll never be alone.

A promise, a vow, a commitment the bottle won't help you forget this,
I'm swearing as God as my witness, this is sorry

Whoa that's just the way it would go, no matter how the dice didn't roll, you'll never be alone.

Wondering is it anything that he did?
What's the reason you're ruining this?
Never be alone, words on pages won't replace this
