The Format

The Format was an American indie rock band formed by Nate Ruess and Arizona native Sam Means. The band announced a hiatus on February 4, 2008. Their style can be considered a mixture of indie, alternative, punk and folk music, with elements of 1960s and 1970s pop music. Though Means and Ruess are the foremost members of the band, they have played, toured, and recorded with Mike Schey, Mark Buzard, Don Raymond, and—for the DVD recording and summer 2007 tour—The Honorary Title's current drummer and The Format alumnus Adam Boyd. The Format chose their name to make fun of the music industry's inclination towards a cookie-cutter "format" for a hit. more »

So far from me stands a man known as disease
He's shaking all the hands
Of the people that he meets 
And now you just don't see me anymore
Now I've been losing everything
You just don't see me anymore
I'll say goodbye

Since you left she's a mess
She regrets all the things 
That she could have said but
We fall asleep, never think about anything
We wake to the sound of a phone
As it hits the ground and oh
You just don't see me anymore
Now I've been losing everything
You just don't see me anymore
I'll say goodbye

And oh at the wake, at the wake
I will turn to see a face
Just a face, just a face 
That's surrounded by a name
What a name, what a name
And you never want to change
What you gave, what you gave
Never want to let go

So surround me
I need anything and you you're everything
I want to live like I did before all this hit
To sleep in your arms to think
We'll never fall apart and oh
You know it's, you know it's such a drag
To live your life for a heart attack
To never get a second chance to say goodbye
To say goodbye I'll never get to try
You just don't see me anymore
Oh I've been losing everything
You just don't see me anymore
I'll say goodbye
