The Collected Works Lyrics - Get Guilty - A.c. Newman

There was a tempest roaring in the deep blues 

There just to put the revolution in you 

You compared the cost of the war 

With walking into a wall 

Thought we saw you coming, including me 

The empty bottles of coup de tat have chilled me 

You repeat the same for years like 

The kind of entrance you'd have 

Expected 

From the collected works of exits 

And you have defended the chemistry of the divide 

But careful wallops of conversation aside 

A beat too late, and it's gone 

A twist on natural law 

Then you arrive with an impact rivaling science 

A sealed, delivered, a gift of the magi signed 

To my old friend, the new 

Who dropped in recently 

Unexpected 

From the collected works of exits 

You faked your way through legend and into the black 

Your careful wallops of conversation stacked 

And tall, so high that you thought 

Here is the entrance I'd have 

Expected 

From the collected works of exits 

From the collected works of exits 

From the collected works of exits
