Format, The - Pick Me Up Lyrics






And you
You're gonna walk backwards
through the room
Does that mean I won't see you?
It means you walk backwards
through the room

Tiffany's crying
She's dying to make it out of this hell
I just laught
'Cause it was my job to be her help
but I'm in my bedroom
Where friends won't debate my health
like"how can he save some summer night,
when he can't save himself"

You've got to pick me up
C'mon and pick me up
when I'm falling down
You've got to pick me up

Cut to December
How can a scalpel tear into skin
revealing walks in the park
Lord how can a heart
come from two separate organs
and you're gonna make this simple
Do you want to make me sweeter?
I know, I know, I know, I know
I'll let you down
I'll let you down

Prescriptions scripting a timeline
Swing sets, grade schools, and black eyes
First love, heartbreak, and true love
Mistakes, heartbreak, and true love

  1. R.... W....

    And you
    You're gonna walk backwards through the room
    Does that mean I won't see you?
    It means you walk backwards
    Through the room

    [Verse 1]
    Tiffany's crying
    She's dying to make it out of this hell
    I just laugh
    Cause it was my job to be her help
    But I'm in my bedroom
    I found me a corner
    Where friends won't debate my health
    Like "how can he save some summer night
    When he can't save himself"

    [Chorus]
    You've got to pick me up
    C'mon and pick me up
    When I am falling down
    You've got to pick me up

    [Verse 2]
    Cut to December
    How can a scalpel tear into skin
    Revealing walks in the park
    Lord how can a heart
    Come from two separate organs
    And you're gonna make this simple
    Do you want to make me sweeter?
    I know, I know, I know, I know
    I'll let you down
    I'll let you down


    [Chorus x2]
    (Prescriptions scripting a timeline

    [Bridge]

    And you're gonna make this simple
    Do you want to make me sweeter?
    I know, I know, I know, I know
    I'll let you down
    I'll let you down

    [Chorus x2]
    (Prescriptions scripting a timeline
    Swing sets, grade schools, and black eyes
    First love, heartbreak, and true love
    Mistakes, heartbreak, and true love)

    can't explain how much i love this song.. ♥ ♥ ♥

  3. s.... ....

    If the opening to this song takes people to prefab sprout, then great. Enjoy.

  4. L.... R....

    Yeah, please, thanks!

  5. L.... R....

    Really?

  6. C.... ....

    ... All fun. has released after Aim and Ignite is Some Nights. No new album has been announced yet... There were no "all the other albums." There was just one, and it only came out like a year ago.

  7. A.... J....

    Aim and Ignite was an amazing album, I just think that all the other albums after it were crap, I did not like them at all.

  8. d.... ....

    I just uploaded it.

  9. j.... ....

    The acoustic version anywhere, anyone? :(

  10. J.... R....

    There is little awesomer than sampling a chorus from an obscure song from an obscure album by an obscure band. <3 Prefab Sprout and The Format.

  11. t.... ....

    I love the format and fun but just because they have the same lead singer does not mean they should be compared they are different genres of music i don't mean to sound mean at all but some people dont like fun because they are "popular" and more "mainstream" and thats not my favorite either but still think that they are both amazing bands and fun is absolutly PERFECT live and for the record i liked the format and fun before we are young became popular so im not just a recent fan

  12. K.... C....

    Buncha hipsters.

  13. T.... B....

    @TarutaruBuddah you're not alone. Mine goes from tie the rope to we do it for fun part 2.

  14. S.... M....

    Does the beginning remind anyone else of the song Marceline sang to that door thingy in Adventure Time??

  15. S.... T....

    i know better than Fun. right

  16. B.... S....

    Opening lyrics from Prefab Sprout's "Green Isaac" for anyone who's wondering!

  17. K.... ....

    @greendodgy I'm not sure I would call this happy. Bittersweet maybe?

  18. g.... ....

    This song I needed in my HAPPY playlist :D Thank you!
