Get Along Songtext
von Garrett Williamson

When I was young I thought adults were kids grown up
It turns out they′re grown up kids
Nothing really tends to change the way people behave
It's their own grave that they dig

Why can′t you just compromise
Why ya gotta be so stubborn
You make this harder than it needs to be
Why you gotta dramatize
Why ya gotta throw em in the gutter
The way you act is unnecessary

He is makin' bad decisions
But he'll listen to no one
He says that guy was the problem
Using manipulation

What′s your reason for division
Is holding grudges now an art
You just wanna cause a problem
And you′re tearing this apart


Your concept of "hero's" drivin′ me insane
You want "good vibes", while you sit there and complain

You spend your life tryin' to bring everyone else down
Wait a minute
Stop your talkin′
Can you hear that sound

Shh, why can't we just get along
Shh, why can′t we just get along

The rules seem simple enough to not forget
One is sorry, and one forgives

But our pride gets the best of us anyway
Why are we so combative

He is deep in his depression
He refuses to get help
Causin' problems for the family
Only thinkin' ′bout himself

She stopped talkin′ to her sister
They don't see things eye to eye
Is it worth it
Are you happy
That you let it all die


Your concept of "hero′s" drivin' me insane
You want "good vibes", while you sit there and complain

You spend your life tryin′ to bring everyone else down
Wait a minute
Stop your talkin'
Can you hear that sound

Shh, why can′t we just get along
Shh, why can't we just get along

Cuz everybody's got a vice
And in the end that′s our demise

We don′t have mercy for wrong
We scream and shout out all day long
We don't see that we are doing just what
We look down on

Y′all need to relax

Your concept of "hero's" drivin′ me insane
You want "good vibes", while you sit there and complain

You spend your life tryin' to bring everyone else down
Wait a minute
Stop your talkin′
Can you hear that sound

Shh, why can't we just get along
Shh, why can't we just get along
Just get along
Shh, why can′t we just get along
Just get along
Shh, why can′t we just get along
