Soon you'll see
that the wings on my back are fake
I've been growing them out
since my very first birthday
Feathers poking through
feel like knives in my back
It's not a counter attack! It's not a counter attack!
Because this is what we call, this is what we call,
this is what we call tears in Seattle
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up,
Tears in Seattle
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up,
Tears in Seattle
And soon you'll see I'm not just anyone
but I'm giving up, I'm giving up baby
and tears will cry like the Seattle sky
But no, no, no, no
This is what we call, this is what we call,
this is what we call tears in Seattle
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up,
Tears in Seattle
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up,
Tears in Seattle
We are the champions,
we are the heroes that will die in the end
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up,
Tears in Seattle
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up,
Tears in Seattle
This is what we call, this is what we call,
this is what we call tears in Seattle
This is what we call, this is what we call,
this is what we call tears in Seattle
