“Get Out” is the first released single from CHVRCHES' third studio album, Love Is Dead. It’s a song that talks about themes of a confusing, changing love that’s difficult to understand, much like a kaleidoscope.
The song premiered on BBC Radio 1 on January 31st 2018. The band teased the song drop...
[Verse 1]
Talked ourselves to death
Never saying what I wanted
Saying what I needed
I pushed you to the edge
Never knowing what I wanted
Knowing what I needed you to say
[Pre-Chorus]
Reflections you used to see
Never look alike to me
[Chorus]
Get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here
Can we get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here?
Good intentions never good enough
Can we get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here?
[Verse 2]
Going out my mind
Never getting what I wanted
Getting what I needed
I left myself behind
Never knowing what I wanted
Knowing what I needed you to do
[Pre-Chorus]
Reflections you used to see
Never look alike to me
[Chorus]
Get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here
Can we get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here?
Good intentions never good enough
Can we get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here?
[Post-Chorus]
So do you want to turn it around?
And do you want to show me how?
You are a kaleidoscope
You are a kaleidoscope
So do you want to turn it around?
And do you want to show me how?
You are a kaleidoscope
You are a kaleidoscope
[Chorus]
Get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here
Can we get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here?
Good intentions never good enough
Can we get out, get out
Get, get, get out
Get, get, get out of here?
[Post-Chorus]
So do you want to turn it around?
And do you want to show me how?
You are a kaleidoscope
You are a kaleidoscope
So do you want to turn it around?
And do you want to show me how?
You are a kaleidoscope
You are a kaleidoscope
[Outro]
You are a kaleidoscope
You are a kaleidoscope
Get Out was written by Lauren Mayberry & Martin Doherty & Iain Cook & Greg Kurstin.
Get Out was produced by Greg Kurstin.
Working with Greg was so different to what we’d done before, but it also felt so comfortable and like he’d been in our band forever. He doesn’t try to make you write a certain kind of song. He just listens and then Jedi puppet masters the best work out of you.
