Get Guilty

A.C. Newman Get Guilty歌詞
1.there are maybe ten or twelve

There are maybe ten or twelve
Things I could teach you
After that, well, I think you're on your own

And that wasn't the opening line
It was the tenth or the twelfth
Make of that what you will

Make of that what you will

Once there was a haunted loop
Of your deep, fallen tears
A forehead resting on a record shelf
Amid moving boxes stacked
I'm still waiting for the right words
Make of that what you will

Make of that what you will


And the eyes they were
A color I can't remember
Which says more than the first two verses
And it is the devil you know
That will slam the door harder
Make of that what you will

Make of that what you will
Make of that what you will
Make of that what you will


2.the heartbreak rides

Just out of the woods and yelling down the mountains
All I really wanted was to go downtown
And so we ride
The heartbreak slides

Rushing at the modern sunset to your window
Gestured with the bleach in hand, she said 'let's go'
'L.A.' she cried
The heartbreak rides for free

Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho

California adds some casual bedlam
Something in the basic swing of things led them to
Victimless crimes
The heartbreak climbs

Playing with your words and come into headlights
Placards on the interstate; we want the good life
'L.A' she cried
The heartbreak rides for free

Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho

Just out of the woods and yelling down the mountains
All I really wanted was to go downtown
And so we ride
The heartbreak slides

Rushing at the modern sunset to your window
Gestured with the bleach in hand, she said 'let's go'
'L.A.' she cried
The heartbreak rides for free

Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho

Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho
Yo ho


3.like a hitman like a dancer

Like a hitman, oh, like a dancer
On the soul, on the soul
Like the old champion about to go under
Oh my soul, oh my soul

You'd like a change, man
Without a change, man
You could've changed sides
But you wanted to win
Changed sides
But you wanted to win

Like a fourth wall, cop chase on blue screen
All eyes roll, all eyes roll
Like a snowfall that blankets a city
Swallowed whole, swallowed whole

You'd like a change, man
Without a change, man
You could've changed sides
But you wanted to win
Changed sides
But you wanted to win


Like a hitman, oh, like a dancer
On the soul, on the soul
Like a balancing act or a stage whisper
It's all I know, it's all I know

You'd like a change, man
Without a change, man
You could've changed sides
But you wanted to win
Changed sides
But you wanted to win

Like a change, man
Without a change, man
You could've changed sides
But you wanted to win
Changed sides
But you wanted to win

Like a hitman, oh, like a dancer
Like a hitman, oh, like a dancer


4.prophets

I was a silent partner I found
Myself with the rabble that stood on a mound
Hipshot thinking but not out loud
There are too many prophets here

On the upper side of the sound of the dark
I took it in silence I took it to heart
I carried it quietly over the wall
There were too many prophets there
I was behind it
One by one by one by one
One by one by one by one
Stand by zero
Stacked on zero
One by one by one by one
One by one by one by one

I was a silent partner for once
And I was split into two sections
Here is my heart and here is my song
There are too many prophets here

I am divided
One by one by one by one
One by one by one by one
Stand on zero
Stacked on zero


I was the silent partner I know
The part of the forrest where you shouldn't go
Now out of the woods and out in the day
I see there's too many prophets here

One by one by one by one
Stand on zero
One by one by one by one
Stacked on zero
One by one by one by one
Stand on zero
One by one by one by one
Stacked on zero
One by one by one by one


5.submarines of stockholm

Stop twisting your words into shapes
Shapes you can only make out when you squint
Traveling with heads full of meth
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
La la la la...
I'll stop
It was one in a series of
One in a series of
Highlights and holy loaves
One in a series
Go

Forget yourself, he's somewhere else
You have the luxury of b-sides (besides?)
No, but I do, I got buckets full
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
La la la la...
I'll stop
It was one in a series of
One in a series of
Highlights and holy loaves
One in a series
Go


Up the third goes, down with the day
Continents away we bless our ship
We do what it says, kick with our legs
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
La la la la...
I'll stop
It was one in a series of
One in a series of
Highlights and holy loaves
One in a series
Go

Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm
Our submarine pulls into Stockholm


6.thunderbolts

We used to throw thunderbolts
They rained down on passing cars
We played it to greet the stars
To play it with any art

You don't need those glasses but
You just look so good in them
We used to throw thunderbolts
Good ideas even then

They let you, let you ride
They let you, let you ride

We used to throw thunderbolts
Twilight on the overpass
We'll wrest them out gravity(?)
Color fast and come with me

And we had some directives
We shown in that villain(?) light
TV yellow and in love
In whatever's shining down

He let you, let you ride
He let you, let you ride

We used to ride thunderheads
We rode them around the bend
You don't need those glasses
You just look so good in them

They let you, let you ride
They let you, let you ride

They let you, let you ride
They let you, let you ride
They let you, let you ride

They let you, let you ride


7.the palace at 4 am

There's some Polynesian dive
Downwind from the badlands
Buh buh buh buh
The Palace at 4a.m.
We kicked through the diamond dust Halfway between
Kicking around in the promised land
Just one flick of the wrist
One flick of the wrist and
Look look look look
We're in the Palace at 4a.m.
When the daydreams in the cupboards
Bah bah bah bah
It's for your soft
The ribbon tied around your thumb
When you were kicking hearts around

With a straight shot, a straight shot
But lady, would you call it off
A straight shot, a straight shot
But lady, would you call it off
Lady, would you call it off

Now no more pushing words around
No more pushing words around
Bah bah bah
In the Palace at 4a.m.
You're asking for the book to
Be thrown down
It opens with the third
With the dumb luck that wasn't blind
Kicking in around in the promised land

With a straight shot, a straight shot
But lady, would you call it off
A straight shot, a straight shot
But lady, would you call it off
Lady, would you call it off

Now no more pushing words around
No more pushing words around
No more pushing words around
No more pushing words around
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.
(Straight shot) In the Palace at 4a.m.


8.the changeling (get guilty)

It's not war, it's more like a warning
There with front row tickets to the public burning
Found in the strip search, the skins have beaten the shirts
Love will travel, yeah, let's say it will
We know where it goes, you know the drill
Get guilty, kid
Get guilty, go
With the same cruel
sense of humor that you came with
With the same cruel
sense of humor that you came with

Change your mind
Change your mind

She kissed the back of my hand and she smiled
Walked away whispering into the wild

Get guilty, kid
Get guilty, go
With the same cruel
sense of humor that you came with
With the same cruel
sense of humor that you came with

Change your mind
Change your mind


And I will die with my foot in my mouth
More magnetic if anything because I had to
Get guilty, kid
Get guilty, go

With the same cruel
sense of humor that I came with
With the same cruel
sense of humor that I came with

Change your mind
Change your mind
Change your mind
Change your mind


9.elemental

It's elemental
When the story opens
It's elemental
Come sunset's gone
And no surprise then
When someone was delivered
He's had a long day
Talk to the living

It's not my way, true, to show best side for you
I fought my way through to the west side for you

It's elemental
Deeper than the daylight
And like a werewolf
There's someone on the inside

It's not my way, true, to show best side for you
I fought my way through to the west side for you
Not because I wanted to
Tooooooo
Nah nah nah nah nah

It's elemental
Watching from the rooftops
And no surprise then
Come sunset's gone

It's not my way, true, to show best side for you
I fought my way through to the west side for you
Not because I wanted to
Tooooooo
Nah nah nah nah


10.young atlantis

Way down in the land of twins
We tell ourselves the part like this
By clues we leave the things that breathe
Down in the bottom of the sea

We're on the wrong side
Of young Atlantis
Ah ah

Fashioned out of rags and straw
To float to you on leaves so far
Your face, my shape, my soul, your page
You changed, you knew that I loved you, blue

And on the wrong side
Of young Atlantis
I -
Ah ah

And I loved you, blue
Yes, I loved you, blue

Some treasure stripped from sunken ships
From those who sailed and lost their shit
But not their way, they sail with me
They drown with me, they ride for free

And on the wrong side
Of young Atlantis
I -

And on the wrong side
Of young Atlantis
I -


11.the collected works

There was a tempest roaring in the deep blues
There just to put the revolution in you
We compared the cost of the war
With walking into a wall

Though we saw you coming, including me
The empty bottles of coup d'etat at your feet
You repeat the same free advice
The kind of entrance you'd have
Expected from the collected works of excess

And you have defended the chemistry of the divine
But careful walls of conversation aside
A beat too late and it's gone
A twist on natural law

Then you arrive with an impact rising size(?)
Sealed, delivered, a gift to the magi sign(?)
To my old friend anew
Who dropped in recently
Unexpected from the collected works of excess


You faked your way through legend and into the black
Your careful walls of conversation stacked
In towers so high that you thought
Here is the entrance I'd have
Expected from the collected works of excess
From the collected works of excess
From the collected works of excess


12.all of my days and all of my days off

Sequins in your wake find their way
'Cause someone left the lights on
And the noon it is a powerful one

Sunshine was outside and I found
Something in the swing here
An idea whose time had come

And now I give you my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)

And now I give you my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)

It broke open the door, flipping chairs
Tipping over tables
Reminded why I love this one

Go trip down the lane, take my name
Flashbulbs probe eureka
Like an idea whose time had come

And now I give you my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)

And now I give you my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
And all of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off

Sunshine was outside and I found
Something in the swing here
An idea whose time had come

And thunderbolts will strike where they may
Like a drunken master
Like an idea whose time had come

And now I give you my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)

And now I give you my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)
All my days (all my days)

And all of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
All of my days off
