Give It Up
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 going to set this free

[Chorus]
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"
Something tells me you're too scared
Something tells me you're too scared to go
[Bridge]
Like a ghost, you've been haunting all these dusty old roads and old homes
The ones we swore we'd never go, never go
As 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
Sometimes I, I just can't sleep
Thinking of everything we could have been

[Chorus]
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"
Something tells me you're too scared

[Chorus]
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"
Something tells me you're too scared
Something tells me you're too scared
Something tells me you're too scared to go
