Get Out
the jim's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I don't want you now
But I'm needing you somehow
I know you're no good for me
Yeah, even I can see
I've got to draw the line
I've got to read the sign
Well I don't want you now
It's just a numbers game
Not one that I can tame
I don't want no help from you
But give credit where it's due
And when the deal is done
And when the race is run
It's just a numbers game

And when I feel the fear
Dark shadows they appear
Strange faces stop and stare
Give me a hand
Cos I've got to get out of here

I can't take no back seat now
No one to show me how
I got to work this thing alone
I gotta know when I'm all done
Can't keep it bottled inside
There's no place for me to hide
I can't take no back seat now

And when I feel the fear
Dark shadows they appear
Strange faces stop and stare
Give me a hand
Cos I've got to get out of here

Don't fight that feeling
Don't try too hard
You've got to break the habit
But don't push too far

Thought I was doing ok
Thought I was on my way
I'm just going to try my hand
In this house built on the sand
Now I can't reach the shore
Can't do this anymore
Thought I was doing ok

And when I feel the fear
Dark shadows they appear
Strange faces stop and stare
Give me a hand
Cos I've got to get out of here





Give me a hand
Or I'll never get out of here.

I thought I was doing fine


Thought I was on my way
I thought I was making progress


I'm just going to try my hand
I'm going to give it a shot


In this house built on the sand
In this unstable foundation


Now I can't reach the shore
Now I can't get to safety


Can't do this anymore
I can't continue this any longer


Give me a hand
Help me


Or I'll never get out of here.
Otherwise, I'll be stuck here forever

Michael saying goodbye to Holly was probably the most mature he’s acted this whole show

goavs

i was just thinking this, that whole episode was surprisingly mature for michael

Holly Golightly

Okay Fatty 😁

Daylightbright

He genuinely loves her, so that encouraged him to let her enjoy being happy with her new partner. He knew that's what was best, so he made the best choice for her happiness and comfort because he cares 😊

Scruff D0g

Nope, that was the ending when he came back to Dwight and Angelas wedding.

I absolutely LOVE that they didn’t flat out tell us Pam was pregnant, it made the scene so much better to experience the shock of this announcement with the characters.

Furious Films

Wait THATS what this scene was??
I legit had no idea-

TheSaintFrenzy

Truly a lost art today. Many shows forget that SHOWING the audience is often far more powerful than telling. Loved how this scene was handled.

@The Maiden absolutely! It's part of the mockumentary style and I LOVE IT! It was confusing for young me though :/
