The Academy Is...

The Academy Is... was an American rock band from Chicago, Illinois, formed in 2003. Before disbanding, they were signed by the Decaydance imprint of the Fueled by Ramen label. They were originally known as "The Academy", but added the "Is..." in 2004 to avoid legal complications with other established bands already under that name. As of 2010[update], the band has released three studio albums, Almost Here, Santi, and Fast Times at Barrington High, and four EPs. On 8 October 2011, the band announced they would go their separate ways. more »

My eyes can't believe what they have seen
In the corner of your room you've stockpiled millions of my memories
Oh doctor, doctor
I must have gotten this sick somehow
I'm going to ask you a series of questions
And I want them answered on the spot
Right now

"Is it serious?"
"I'm afraid it is"
"Am I gonna die?"
"Well son
Death is gonna catch up to all one day
But yours is coming quicker than ours, than ours"
Some things I may have taken for granted again and again
Well here's what was said then

Hold your head high, heavy heart

So take a chance and make it big
'Cause it's the last you'll ever get
If we don't take it
When will we make it
I make plans to break plans
And I've been planning something big
Planning something big
Planning

I never tried to make the best of my time
When I thought that I had plenty of it
Is this serious?
I don't know what to think
Is it all a lie?
Well one thing is for sure
I'm taken back to the glory days when
When we were kids without a brash or bitter thing to say
Now my life is one big make it or break it

Hold your head high, heavy heart
And save your strength for the morning after

So take a chance and make it big
'Cause it's the last you'll ever get
If we don't take it
When will we make it
I make plans to break plans
And I've been planning something big
Planning something big

So take a chance and make it big
'Cause it's the last you'll ever get
If we don't take it
When will we make it
I make plans to break plans
And I've been planning something big
Planning something big
Planning

Hold your head high, heavy heart
And save your strength for the morning after

So take a chance and make it big
'Cause it's the last you'll ever get
If we don't take it
When will we make it
I make plans to break plans
And I've been planning something big
Planning something big

So take a chance and make it big
'Cause it's the last you'll ever get
If we don't take it
When will we make it
I make plans to break plans
And I've been planning something big
Planning something big
