Get Out
The Confederate Dead Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My job is done and I was helped by no one
I've taken what I need, shut the door when I leave
And what? What's in store for me?
Gonna listen and not preach
It will be erased, all mistakes are out
Get out...
Now I sit back and I watch, watch the sneak attack
I could've warned them of the plan, but what fun would that leave for men?
And what? What's in store for us all?
Gonna run until we fall




It will be erased, all mistakes are out
Get out

It's good nowadays to see bands with real, raw talent. Truly, it is such a relief. And it is so beautiful.

amazing band and amazing song they're so awesome live

Grace Smithwick

this is a band I'd love to see live. the songs are on the depressing side, but in a really, really good way. very much reminded of Silverchair, Modest Mouse, Placebo, etc. strange mix of sounds.

Jason Roy Sawyer

I saw this band live in Park City, Utah during Sundance back in 2010. I have really liked them ever since. I wish they would have done more music.
