Young Agent Jones: Music & Lyrics
(You Got) Away With Words
(Young Agent Jones)
2007
Lyrics -- Jones
You were writing poetry for sympathy
What a clever way for you to use your degree
You started dropping hints about your pain
Then you dropped a bomb on the third refrain
You got away with words
I can’t believe the things I heard
And if I ever catch up to you
I’m going to let you know what you started
You got away with words
I can’t believe the things I heard
And I know that you know that I know
That you sold out your friends
And here’s where it ends
There’s a better way to try and be the boss
Than lining up your friends and putting them on a cross
I can’t stop thinking that you knew what was going on
And I can’t believe that you did what you knew was wrong
I know that you need attention
We’ve all been down on our place and position, but
You took a nasty fall
Riding a wrecking ball
You stole our confidence, then you
You sold our confidence, but
We are not backing down
We’re not giving in
You’re not about to get away
