The Getaway Plan Lyrics
wasted journeys
time spent better knowing nothing
and looks
they don't help
prying eyes wander west
to where ocean meets gold
and you wonder why my heart
it breaks in two
hours pass into minutes
kissing the seconds away
and days seem to melt
just like your classic summers
it's come to the point where
everything looses perspective
and i'm the one
and i'm the one who
prying eyes wander west
to where ocean meets gold
and you wonder why my heart
it breaks for you
stupid things are said
stupid things are done
and when the time comes
i'll shout from high mountain tops
time spent better knowing nothing
and looks
they don't help
prying eyes wander west
to where ocean meets gold
and you wonder why my heart
it breaks in two
kissing the seconds away
and days seem to melt
just like your classic summers
everything looses perspective
and i'm the one
and i'm the one who
to where ocean meets gold
and you wonder why my heart
it breaks for you
stupid things are done
and when the time comes
i'll shout from high mountain tops

AWSOME SONG! TOTALY TRUE! IT TALKS ABOUT HOW I FEEL! THERE ISNT A BETTER SONG THAT CAN DESCRIBE HOW I FEEL!
this song is meant to be a bridge between the between order and model E.P and the four ways ep. It was released as a b-side to the first official U.K single. if that helps at all.
this is matts impression of daryl palumbo according to the seven ways e.p sleeve.
what the fuck? This song is so old and none posted even a comment on it that the song is fucking amazing. -.- In the seven ways to scream your name there is a line like this that is not here. "Your smile is so false, it won't take much to see you break." I hoped 2 times that ffaf would play this one live. But didnt.
Matt is singing here about decisions in life. The beginning of the song starts with 2 guitars that act after another (left,right,left,right,left,right) to show that actually. In my opinion its a decision between moving west (like american westward movement) to fulfill hopes and dreams, or to stay in a relationship. That decision caused trouble in some way (your smile is so false, it won't take much to see you break.)
He knew it was stupid but he is shure that he will climb the mountain of his hopes and will shout whats left, and which decision was better.
Here are the correct lyrics.
Wasted journeys, time spent better knowing nothing And looks, they don't help. Prying eyes wander west to where oceans meet gold, And you wonder why my heart, it breaks in two.
Hours pass into minutes, kissing the seconds away, And days, they seem to melt just like your classic summers.
It's come to the point where everything loses perspective... And I'm the one, and I'm the one who... Prying eyes wander west to where oceans meet gold, And you wonder why my heart, it breaks for you.
Hours pass into minutes, kissing the seconds away, And days, they seem to melt just like your classic summers.
Your smile is so false, it won't take much to see you break
Stupid things are said, stupid things are done And when the time comes, I'll shout from high mountain tops.
And darr3n, I think you're pretty much spot on with that!
