The Academy Is... : Checkmarks Lyrics

Songwriters: Beckett, William; Carden, Michael;

. Send "Checkmarks" Ringtone to your Cell .

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

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

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

So don't explain 'cause I know exactly what you're 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

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

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

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

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
