Get Up
Skrillex & Korn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And no one knows what to do
Pieces of the puzzle don't fit
So I pound them into you
Itching is the pulse inside
Creeping out to come alive
It's just doing what it's gonna do
Times are looking grim these days
Holding on to everything
It's hard to draw the line
Shut the fuck up, get up
Shut the fuck up, get up
Shut the fuck up, get up
I can't wait to rip my eyes out and look at you
Peace through pain is precious
Especially when it's done by you
Itching is the pulse inside
Creeping out to come alive
It's just doing what it's gonna do
Times are looking grim these days
Holding on to everything
It's hard to draw the line
And I, I'm hiding in this empty space
Tortured by my memories
Of what I left behind
Shut the fuck up, get up
Shut the fuck up, get up
Shut the fuck up, get up
Times are looking grim these days
Holding on to everything
It's hard to draw the line
And I, I'm hiding in this empty space
Tortured by my memories
Of what I left behind
Shut the fuck up, get up
Shut the fuck up, get up
Shut the fuck up, get up
The lyrics to Skrillex & Korn's song Get Up are intense, raw and emotional - dealing with feelings of desperation, brokenness and the struggle to hold on. The singer confesses to being shattered and no one knowing what to do to help them put the pieces back together. The pieces are like puzzle pieces that don't quite fit, and the only way to make them fit is to pound them into the listener. The singer is struggling with their inner demons, which are creeping out to come alive. They wonder whether to give in to these impulses and let them take over or to hold on to everything that they have.
The chorus is a rebellious and angry yell, urging the listener to "shut the fuck up, get up". The repetition of this line is the battle cry against the singer's inner turmoil. The chorus also suggests that the singer's pain is only their own, and they want to release their pain by hurting someone else. The line "I can't wait to rip my eyes out and look at you" implies the singer wants to make someone else suffer by watching them suffer too.
The last verse of the song suggests that the singer is struggling to move on from a traumatic experience. They feel tortured by their memories and are hiding in an empty space, unable to escape the pain they've left behind. The line "It's hard to draw the line" highlights the difficulty in knowing when it's time to let go and move on or to keep holding on.

I am clearly broken
I am suffering emotionally and mentally
And no one knows what to do
No one understands or knows how to help me
Pieces of the puzzle don't fit
My life is confusing and things don't make sense
So I pound them into you
I try to make sense of my life by forcing my ideas onto others
Itching is the pulse inside
An intense feeling building up inside me
Creeping out to come alive
This feeling is growing and becoming more prominent in my life
It's just doing what it's gonna do
The feeling will manifest itself in ways beyond my control
Times are looking grim these days
These are tough times
Holding on to everything
Trying to maintain control over my life
It's hard to draw the line
It's difficult to know when to stop and take a break
Shut the fuck up, get up
Stop dwelling on your problems, and take action!
I can't wait to rip my eyes out and look at you
I'm so frustrated and in pain that I want to take extreme measures
Peace through pain is precious
There can be valuable lessons learned through suffering
Especially when it's done by you
I can overcome this if I try hard enough
And I, I'm hiding in this empty space
I'm feeling isolated and alone
Tortured by my memories
My past experiences are causing me great distress
Of what I've left behind
I'm haunted by my past actions and mistakes
Shut the fuck up, get up
Stop being consumed by your problems, and take action!
Shut the fuck up, get up
Stop feeling sorry for yourself, and make positive changes!
Shut the fuck up, get up
Don't wallow in self-pity, and seize the day!

@Coolycoconut
This is musical heaven when you like both metal and dubstep

SHUT THE FUCK UP
GET UP !
@johny.3400
I feel like deathcore would benefit a lot from dubstep.
@ashitpie.8329
@@johny.3400 I agree
@lorentzinvariant7348
Not a big fan of dubstep on its own but somehow bringing it and metal together as done here is brilliant.
@mandihollingsworth182
Yes!!!!!! It feels like liquid valium to my ears. Relaxing and relatable.
@HrZD16
This entire album is so underrated, Get Up, My Wall, and Narcissistic Cannibal are such powerful songs.

Yeah people are just so far up their own asses when it comes to hating dubstep sometimes. I get not liking it for sure but some people are just intentionally obnoxious about other people who disagree with them.
