The Get Up Kids

The Get Up Kids are an American alternative rock band from Kansas City, Missouri. Formed in 1995, the band was a major player in the mid-90's emo scene, otherwise known as the "second wave" of emo music. As they gained prominence, they began touring with bands such as Green Day and Weezer before becoming headliners themselves, eventually embarking on international tours of Japan and Europe. They founded Heroes & Villains Records, an imprint of the successful indie rock label Vagrant Records. While the imprint was started to release albums by The Get Up Kids, it served as a launching pad for several side-projects such as The New Amsterdams and Reggie and the Full Effect. more »

Summer swallowed us whole
Waited for you to come around
Every word you wrote 
Down, we read it over to know
Would they believe in us now?

There's no shame like no 
Sound from sources hits close to home
Everything that we've found 
Says make your own destiny, but

You're unaware that you should be scared
Maybe you'll learn from mistake that we make
Not waiting forever
We know you'll never be there
Not waiting forever
If you get out, see you there

Summer swallowed us whole
Waited for you to come around

There's no shame like no 
Sound from sources hits close to home
Everything that we've found 
Says make your own destiny, but

You're unaware that you should be scared
Maybe you'll learn from mistake that we make
Not waiting forever
We know you'll never be there
Not waiting forever
If you get out, see you there
You're not awake as I'm aware

Maybe we had all you figured 
Absolutely wrong
There's been a misunderstanding 
We've had all along
Maybe we had all you figured 
Absolutely wrong
You can read about
About it when we're gone
