Joy.Discovery.Invention

Biffy Clyro

Look at slow motion
Asleep at the door
Next to destruction
Reach for the source

Get up, Get up, Get over
Take me to your blackened sky
Get up, Get up, Get over
Take me to your blackened sky

Sick with you wasted,
Dreams when you can.
Find time to console them,
Become what I am.

If you
Submit to
All the hopes you made
Down
Through
Your heart

Get up, Get up, Get over
Take me to your blackened sky
Get up, Get up, Get over
Take me to your blackened sky

Passed away
I hope you dont mind
What was left, you have
To see it through

If you wanna get in
Go and break my heart
Take me to your blackened sky
Take me to your blackened sky

    General CommentI don't think those lyrics are right...between
    "become what I am" and "get up, get up" it should say:
    "If you
    submit to
    all the hopes you made
    down, through
    your heart"

    or something like that...

    And I think the "by the way" part should be:
    Past the way
    I hope you don't mind
    Watch the letter sink/say
    to see this through

    although that doesn't make much sense...it's what I think they say....

    General CommentI think this song is brilliant. I like all of Buffy Clyro's songs.. but this is one of the best.

    General Commentwhen I first heard it, I couldnt stand the way they sang 'Get Up, Get Up, Get Over', but the emotion in his voice as he sings 'take me to your blackened sky' more than makes up for it.

    General Commentfools, those aren't the lyrics, its

    Look at slow motion, asleep at the door
    Next to destruction, reach for the sores

    Get up, get up, get over, take me to your blackened sky
    Get up, get up, get over, take me to your blackened sky

    Sink with your wasted dreams when you can
    Find time to console them, become what I am
    If you submit to all the hopes you’ve made
    Down, through your heart

    Get up, get up, get over, take me to your blackened sky
    Get up, get up, get over, take me to your blackened sky

    Passed away, I hope you don’t mind, what’s a little sin to see us through

    If you want it, get it, go and break my heart, take me to your blackened sky
    If you want it, get it, go and break my heart, take me to your blackened sky

    Passed away, I hope you don’t mind, what’s a little sin to see us through
    If you wanna get it, come and break my heart, take me to your blackened sky

    General Commentdon't know what significance this is of but the title is from a line in the book "choke" by chuck palahniuk. fantastic book, fantastic song.
    i agree with darkmongoose about how he sings the lines though.

    General CommentThis is my favorite biffy song and it will always mean alot to me, I love it cause I often find it hard to find the meaning in Biffy songs, they kind of let you make your own.
