Through the Haze Lyrics

Relax
Stay calm
This shouldn't take very long
Deep breaths
Unrest
Release
Regroup
Lay low
There's no way for us to know
Pitfall
Withdraw
Rejoice

Learn to let go of all the things we used to know
All the wants and the fears
The rest is shows
Redirect energy into something we percieve
As the light on the path full of life
You're glowing

We find this is it
Unblinded, pure content
We're passing through the haze
That man was me you saved

Relax
Stay calm
This shouldn't take very long
Bruised chest
Depressed
Regret
Regroup
Lay low
There's no way for us to know
Broken walls
Curtain calls
Rejoice
You're glowing

We find this is it
Unblinded, pure content
We're passing through the haze
That man was me you saved

Everybody just stay calm
This shouldn't take that long

We find this is it
Unblinded, pure content
We're passing through the haze
That man was me you saved
Oh just stay calm
This shouldn't take that long
Just stay calm
This shouldn't take that long
Let's all stay calm
This shouldn't take that long
Just stay calm

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Through the Haze lyrics by Get Up Kids, The

This is exciting stuff! For those who don't know, this song is a recently released demo from back when the band was still trying to find someone to produce On a Wire. There were five brand-new songs found in this batch of demos, and they're pretty great.

I've started a repository for Get Up Kids bootlegs, demos, and rare tracks/video (OK-ed by Matt Pryor himself) over at getupkidsarchive.blogspot.com. This is there, as well as plenty of other stuff. Please check it out, and send me an email if you have something I don't! The site is kept alive by people like you letting us share it with fans all over the world, and you will receive credit. Thanks!
