Get It Together
Wayne Static Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here we lie
The beginning
This eternal
Save us all
Try to put it back together
Timing's right to evoke a secret seance
Time to fight this undying hunger
There's no lying
Deepest darkest
I'm accepting we've been using
This could still become a sticky situation
Got to deal with these urges now

Get it together
Yeah
Get it together

End of night
The beginning
This infernal
Trade it all
Do it over so forgetful
See the light
It all happens for a reason
Time to kill this unending season
There's no lying
Deepest darkest
I'm accepting it's the hardest
Take my body
Take away the hesitation
Take away the sensation

Get it together
Yeah
Get it together

Get it together
Yeah
Get it together

Thinking about the days when we went insane
Snorted ten pills
Started hallucinating
Popped some Viagra to make my hair stand up
The Patron kicks in and it melts my brain
And then there was the time that we were inside out
Ate enough E to turn my hair into frosting
5am in the parking lot
Couldn't help ourselves
We just couldn't stop it

No remorse, no regrets
I'd do it all again if I had the chance
End of night, see the light
Rode the horse and I aced the test
Time to fight it off
Time to come together
Time to turn it up
Time to come together
Time to fight it off
Time to come together
Time to fight it off
Time to turn it off
Turn it off

Make the case
Kill the moth
Self revealed
Take the loss
Can't replace
Just because
What we feel
Is chaos
Use this trust to

Get it together
Yeah
Get it together

Get it together




Yeah
Get it together

Overall Meaning

The song "Get It Together" by Wayne Static starts with the lines "Here we lie, the beginning, this eternal, save us all." This line could be interpreted as the beginning of introspection and the realization of the chaos within. The next lines continue with "Try to put it back together, timing's right to evoke a secret seance, time to fight this undying hunger." The singer is trying to gather all the pieces of themselves, and the timing is perfect to bring about a spiritual gathering that will help fight this never-ending desire. The chorus "Get it together" emphasizes the importance of consolidating oneself and facing one's inner demon.


The second verse starts with "End of night, the beginning, this infernal, trade it all." This could be interpreted as the end of ignorance and the beginning of enlightenment - a time to give away everything one knows, unlearn anything that has been programmed, and start afresh. "Do it over so forgetful" reinforces this idea of starting without any prejudices. The singer then sings about getting rid of any unending seasons and accepting that this is the toughest part. The next lines again emphasize the importance of overcoming one's urges and taking control of oneself.
