The Get Up Kids

The Get Up Kids are an American alternative rock band from Kansas City, Missouri. Formed in 1995, the band was a major player in the mid-90's emo scene, otherwise known as the "second wave" of emo music. As they gained prominence, they began touring with bands such as Green Day and Weezer before becoming headliners themselves, eventually embarking on international tours of Japan and Europe. They founded Heroes & Villains Records, an imprint of the successful indie rock label Vagrant Records. While the imprint was started to release albums by The Get Up Kids, it served as a launching pad for several side-projects such as The New Amsterdams and Reggie and the Full Effect. more »

I've met that point in my life. 
Want came to need. 
Burn these fields of corn, that surround. 
My harvest gone at the price of maturity. 
But these remains I've left to rot will be resurrected again and again 
by the next generation of children who want to change minds 
with the stain on hand. 
But, it's deeper than this, I'm not the only one who sees, it lies in diversity; 
acceptance to a degree, only to a degree. 
The fire that once occupied my eyes has spread to destroy this world 
I have grown. You have nothing new to scream beyond your fields 
and not a second of patience to learn from me the same. 
This time I harvest the crops of my past. 
As far as the demigods are concerned, I've sold myself out just the same.
I've burned bridges to feign brothers.
Brothers of nothing more than a simple label. 
So now, I'm in control after all, for myself I prove I still am.
But within these fields, they'll say I never was
