Catastrophe Lyrics
Wake up, you're a drama queen
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away
How long have you been in your bedroom?
It's been three days straight
With your sheets and your pillows
The crack on the walls
A reminder of my father and all his integrity
I know that I shouldn't let it get to me
(But it does, and who am I kidding?)
A dead end job and a lack of family
This town gets to me
Wake up, you're a drama queen
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away, gotta get up and go
Break out from the drama scene
Stick around
It'll bury me
Get away, hurry up, come on
This is becoming a catastrophe
I've made up my mind
Took time to think of everything I could do
It may be hard, but I'm trying hard to comprehend
Where I quit and where I should begin
I know that I shouldn't let it get to me
(But it does, and who am I kidding?)
A dead end job and a lack of family
This town gets to me
Wake up, you're a drama queen
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away, gotta get up and go
Break out from the drama scene
Stick around
It'll bury me
Get away, hurry up, come on
This is becoming a catastrophe
This is becoming a catastrophe
You're a fake
A product of a world
Who I've always mistaked
To come and remain
I know that I shouldn't let it get to me
(But it does, and who am I kidding?)
Wake up, you're a drama queen
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away, gotta get up and go
Break out from the drama scene
Stick around
It'll bury me
Get away, hurry up, come on
This is becoming a catastrophe
You're a fake
A product of a world
Who I've always mistaked
To come and remain
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away
It's been three days straight
With your sheets and your pillows
The crack on the walls
A reminder of my father and all his integrity
(But it does, and who am I kidding?)
A dead end job and a lack of family
This town gets to me
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away, gotta get up and go
Break out from the drama scene
Stick around
It'll bury me
Get away, hurry up, come on
This is becoming a catastrophe
Took time to think of everything I could do
It may be hard, but I'm trying hard to comprehend
Where I quit and where I should begin
(But it does, and who am I kidding?)
A dead end job and a lack of family
This town gets to me
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away, gotta get up and go
Break out from the drama scene
Stick around
It'll bury me
Get away, hurry up, come on
This is becoming a catastrophe
This is becoming a catastrophe
A product of a world
Who I've always mistaked
To come and remain
(But it does, and who am I kidding?)
Carry on like you're supposed to be
Get away, hurry up, come on
Get away, gotta get up and go
Break out from the drama scene
Stick around
It'll bury me
Get away, hurry up, come on
This is becoming a catastrophe
A product of a world
Who I've always mistaked
To come and remain

yay first comment. i love this song! i think its about stuck-up fake people?!
Such an amazing song. Favorite of the new album, actually.
This is one of the best songs from the new album.. Sure to be a hit.. ^_^
This os deffintley the best song on the new album. I feel like it should have been the first song or something not the last. The meaning is self explanitory. I HEART FTSK majorrr
Blah i meant IS not OS
haha. =)
this is definitely my favorite song from the new album.
they're so amazing. for real.
Caleb and Austin really outdid themselves with this. Lyrically, in my opinion, it's one of their best.
I love this song. Def. my favorite off the album.
I think of it being family drama because “reminder of my father and all his integrity”. I see a mom locking herself in her room because of a fight with the dad (maybe financial because of a “dead end job”). Then the next part “I shouldn’t let it get to me, but it does” it’s not the kids fault but the kid feels like it is. They just want to get away from all the fighting because it’s “becoming a catastrophe” and out of control. They want to help their parents but they wouldn’t know where to start or how to help. The longer that the drama goes on the more it hurts (“stick around, it’ll bury me”)
Then the last part- “You're a fake, A product of a world, Who I've always mistaked, To come and remain”. I relate it the first part with the cracks on the wall and father’s integrity.. meaning the dad caused the cracks on the wall because of his lack of or “fake” integerty. The kid always looked up to the dad but now realizes it was a mistake.
thats just how I see it.. it reminds me of my parents divorce and all that stuff.
I agree with that stance 100% While very upbeat its defiantly one of there more deeper songs.
