"Turn It Up" lyrics

"Turn It Up"

September falls right into place (eh eh eh)
Always forget the heat of summer
The comeback from the getaway (eh eh eh)
Always forget the heat of summer
The school yard and pavement grey (eh eh eh)
Always forget the heat of summer
I saw your face on that first day (eh eh eh)
Always forget the heat

Plastic talk on TV
Backwards love from your family
All the things we'll never be
Shut off and turn it up
Let's drown out our memories
Forget the plot and the bullies
Tonight it's you and me
Shut off and turn it up
Shut off and turn it up

Basement smoke in a state of grace (eh eh eh)
Heartbeat cold in the dead of winter
A firewall at the holy gates (eh eh eh)
Heartbeat cold in the dead of winter
My friends stay up way too late (eh eh eh)
You can't have love if you don't have hate (eh eh eh)
Heartbeat cold, heartbeat cold

Plastic talk on the TV
Backwards love from your family
All the things we'll never be
Shut off and turn it up
One more time no one is lost
If you have it hard, if you have it soft
It's still not loud enough. It's still not loud enough!

We have the time, the time is up
We have the time, the time is up
We have the time, the time is up

Shut off and turn it up
Shut off and turn it up
Shut off and turn it up
Shut off and turn it up
Shut off and turn it
