Bail Me Out
All Time Low Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What can I say?
I fucked this up again,
What can I do?
I took it out on you,
I run around and make,
A mess of everything,
I made a big mistake,
And now I'm wondering,

Would ya,
Bail me out if I need it?
Help me down
Will you catch me when I fall?
Another night I'm out here wasted,
Another night you gotta take my call

Would ya,
Bail me out,
Bail me out,
Bail me out,
I say are you gonna take my call?

So listen up,
I know I'm out of line,
Just settle down,
You know it's gonna be alright,
Please come around and get,
Get me out of here,
Just take me far away,
I really wanna to disappear,

Would ya,
Bail me out if I need it?
Help me out
Would you catch me when I fall?
Another night I'm out here wasted,
Another night you gotta take my call

Would ya,
Bail me out,
Bail me out,
Bail me out,
Are you gonna take my call?

Don't stop, ready or not,
It's such a long way, away from the top,
And I know,
That you'll be there to catch me if I stumble down this road,

Would ya,
Bail me out if I need it?
Help me down,
Will you catch me when I fall?
Another night I'm out here wasted,
Another night you gotta take my call

Would ya,
Bail me out if I need it?
Help me down,
Will you catch me when I fall?
Another night I'm out here wasted,
Another night you gotta take my call

Would ya
Bail me out,
Bail me out,




Bail me out,
So are you gonna take my call?

I saw this live last night. Joel told us "the story" of how it was written.
Jack was drunk. He called Joel, and Alex had to go bail him out.
I was crying from laughing.

What a great song from a stellar album! So much variety in a pocket full of tunes. These guys can really belt out a tune, and then turn around with a heartfelt ballad. Super talent...
