Checkmarks


So there you are, and here I stand,
As far as I remember you weren't half bad.
Your bedroom behavior was never more then checkmarks on bedposts.
For I remember we never had.

[Pre-Chorus:]
You get me out of the rain, you get me out of my clothes.
You hope I don't make a sound, you hope that nobody knows.
You get me out of the rain, you get me out of my clothes.
You hope I don't make a sound, you hope that no one...

[Chorus:]
So suck your so called pity down.
Hey, that's not so bad, is it?
So take your cold, cold heart and drown
and don't forget to take deep breaths.
So suck your so called pity down.
Hey, that's not so bad, is it?
So take your cold, cold heart and drown
and don't forget to take deep breaths.

[Chorus]

So don't explain cause I know exactly what your going to say.
Big words, recycled phrases, and the bittersweet taste of other boys on your lips.
So now just sit here and talk about how you wanted it all.
So now just sit here and talk about how you wanted it all.

[Prechorus]
[Chorus]

Do you miss looking up from the floor at my face on a stage in a crowded room?
Well it's not the same.
I bet you're still a sucker for those famous faces.
Downtown, looking down, down, looking over the crowd, I hope you're out there, look at me now.
Well it's not the same.
Just look at how we've changed.

[Chorus]

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Academy Is... were an American alternative rock/emo-pop band from Barrington, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. Formed in 2003, the band initially used the name "The Academy", but in 2004 they added the suffix "Is...". to avoid legal disputes with other musical groups using the same name. The original lineup consisted of William Beckett (vocals), Andy Mrotek (guitar), Adam Siska (bass) and Mike Carden (drums). 2005 saw the release of their debut album, "Almost Here", followed by "Santi" in 2007. The group is known for its energetic and melodic sound, influenced by emo rock and pop punk. Some of their most representative songs include "The Phrase That Pays", "Slow Down", and "Heartbeat". The Academy Is... announced their disbandment in 2011, but reunited to perform at the Riot Fest in Chicago in 2015.
