Song Lyrics of the Day 11/26 and 11/27
Two ditty's from the Getup Kids today. And just like most of the stuff i post, they are both very emotional and bittersweet, and Ten Minutes is especially close to my heart. The Getup Kids are one of my absolute favorite bands (along with The Deftones and The Alkaline Trio). For those who like these tunes, TGUK are release a new album today called Eudora - its a compilation of some of their older rare and unreleased stuff, along with some 7inch stuff.
And for those that ask why I dont post more of my own words? Songs like these, that express my feelings much better than I ever could, are the reason.

Ten minutes to downtown
Is ten minutes too far.
When my friends all say I’m crazy,
Maybe I’m being selfish.
(Maybe I’m being selfish.)
Maybe I’m just scared.
(Maybe I’m just scared. )
Don’t be gone when I get home…
I need you there.
If I had to explain it
I wouldn’t know where to start.
It’s like you’re falling in love while I just fall apart.
Ten minutes to downtown
Is ten minutes too far
When my heart is saying you’re crazy.
Maybe things are getting better…
(Maybe things are getting better…)
Maybe things aren’t so bad.
(Maybe things aren’t so bad. )
Don’t be gone when I get home…
You’re all I have.
If I had to explain it,
I wouldn’t know where to start.
It’s like you’re falling in love while I just fall apart.
Pockets empty.
How can you tell me that everything will work out…
A pointless fight
When you’re always right.
Everything will work out.
It works out.
Sometimes, I miss you more
Whenever I’m at home.
I’ve been home all summer…
Now I’m leaving you alone.
Pockets empty.
How can you tell me that everything will work out…
A pointless fight
When you’re always right.
Everything will work out.
Everything will work out.
Everything will work out.

Sooner or later more,
These words to paper pour.
Compose apologies,
To bring you back to me.
What words were written for…
One girl whose pages tore.
I’ll bet you never knew,
With a letter came a fool for you.
She says she’d worked it out,
This room’s not big enough for two.
He swears she’d work his words out,
If she ever knew.
How do I find her,
Bearing my heart in hand.
Last winter,
Anne Arbour
Was all I had.
I still wear your heart around my throat
I still wear your heart around my throat
With barely the air not to choke.
Never, not ever again.
I finally replaced every promise you’ve taken away.
Now that it’s over, I’m older and colder this way.
I finally replaced every promise you’ve taken away.
How do I find her,
Bearing my heart in my hand.
Last winter,
Anne Arbour
was all I had.

This is the closest to this friend that I've been.
I hope you find it easy on greener ground and bluer skies.
I hope you don't think less of me if I'm cold,
I don't want to watch you go.
I'll cry until I can't see the whites of your eyes
For two more years, two more years.
We'll be old enough to know better, young enough to pretend.
This is the last of my letters
I hope I find my home
And I hope you're the first one in it.
I know it won't be the same.
I'll be there if you need anything at all you want to be.
Run around the world with me.
State your distance but it's not a million miles away.
If this is what will really make you happy
Then I'll say that we'll be...
Old enough to know better, young enough to pretend.
This is the last of my letters until I see you again.

I discovered the GUK in '97 when I was DJ'ing at my college. I fell in love with them instantly

I am a music whore, and am always checking out new bands, and I'll listen to just about anything anyone suggests to me.
