Carried Away Songtext
von Passion Pit

Since my heart is golden
I′ve got sense to hold in
Tempted just to make an ugly scene
No I'm not as proper
My money′s in copper
Ripped down from the brownstones to the street

Listen, I'm your friend, don't quote me
But not a friend worth noting
Yes, please don′t ever note me as your friend
Who says we have cold hearts?
Acting out our old parts
Let′s perform our favorite little scene

I get carried away
Carried away from you
When I'm open and afraid
′Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that
Sorry about the things that I said
Always let it get in my way


All your appeal, once again with feeling
Higher education making sense
Justify your thesi, certain that you need this
Tell me what your point is in defense

Listen, I don′t really know you
And I don't think I want to
But I think I can fake it if you can
Let′s agree there's no need
No more talk of money
Let's just keep pretending to be friends
Oh-oh-oh-oh

I get carried away
Carried away from you
When I′m open and afraid
′Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that
Sorry about the things that I said
Always let it get in my way

I get carried away
Carried away from you
When I′m open and afraid
'Cause I′m sorry, sorry about that
Sorry about the things that I said
Always let it get in my way


Wake up in the morning
Wake up in the evening
Wake up when you want to
'Cause no one′s really watching
Well, she'll have something to say about it but
We all have problems
We're all having problems
And we′ve all got something to say

I get carried away
Carried away from you
When I′m open and afraid
'Cause I′m sorry, sorry about that
Sorry about the things that I said
Always let it get in my way

I get carried away
Carried away from you
When I'm open and afraid
′Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that
Sorry about the things that I′ve said
Always let it get in my way
