The Format - Give It Up lyrics



well i made my way back down to the valley
right on past 83rd street
that's where we once belonged
but i'm gone, i swear, i'm long gone

so give it up
throw your hats in the air
and change just as they land
you're saying we'll get out of here
but something tells me that you're too scared to go

so the stairs that you could climb
are the ones you've left behind
and your eyes light up when we talk about the past
God i miss those songs we used to sing
talking like getting away would be the greatest thing
well me, i got out, and you kept singing to me
like that's really gonna to set this free

so give it up
throw your hats in the air
and change just as they land
you're saying we'll get out of here
but something tells me that you're too scared
something tells me that you're too scared to go

like a ghost, you've been haunting all these dusty old roads
and old homes
the ones we swore we'd never go
never goes for joe, oh i've seen him around
then there's adam, he's afraid to go out
i don't blame him
i just wanted to go out to eat
then there's mark
goddamn i wish him the best
we were kids back then as if we could progress
and sometimes i, i just can't sleep
thinking of everything we could have been

so, so give it up
throw your hats in the air
and change just as they land
you're saying we'll get out of here
but something tells me that you're too scared

give it up
throw your hats in the air
and change just as they land
you're saying we'll get out of here
but something tells me that you're too scared
something tells me that you're too scared
something tells me you're too scared to go
