🎶 #NowPlaying 🎶

Promise yourself
That this isn't all we've got

Back down, cash out
That's the city for you
Break down, back out
And get what's coming to you

When you said
You were falling apart
I thought you meant
That you were falling apart

🎶 #NowPlaying 🎶

Twice is nice
But three times is just right

Hey, hey
Now we're almost home
I'm missing you to death
But it's all for the best I know

Hey, hey
We're not far from home
And I've got my pride
And I'll let you sleep tonight…

#AlmostHere #TheAcademyIs…

a fanmade unofficial poster for the academy is , specifically their show on september 20th , at concord music hall in chicago . the poster depicts a green deer , with a large wide eye reflecting the trees from the almost here album cover . just below him is a pink shadow that includes the opening band's name "the paradox" . above him to the left is a sun , in the style of the almost here album cover as well . over top of the sun is text showing the headlining band , the academy is . it is warped to follow the edge of the sun , and is a vibrant red to pink gradient .

take a deep breath ... theyre almost here !! 🦌🌳

🎶 #NowPlaying 🎶

Somebody
Get my phone
So I can throw it in
A public pool and
Watch it float and

As it’s slowly
sinking down
Become a social ghost

Inside a box
Cut at the top
To let some
Light shine in

To remind me
What I’ve done
And where I’ve been…

#WeveGotABigMessOnOurHands #TheAcademyIs

🎶 #NowPlaying 🎶

But the bottles
Are hollow now
And there's room
At the bottom

And I would
Take it all back
If I could
But I won't

We're living
What we're singing
So I guess
That’s a step
In the right direction
Clever composition
And the honesty, honesty

Oh, Mr. Magazine
I never wrote
One single thing for you
Or your so-called
Music scene
You both mean
Shit to me

#BlackMamba #TheAcademyIs

🎶 #NowPlaying 🎶

Wake up
Think fast
Three weeks
Have passed

We are changing
No sleep, no gas
No excuses
Will pass these lips

Cause we're
Shaping up to be
All you wish
You could have been

To write the hits
And to turn their heads
And to open eyes
To a brand new season

#Season #TheAcademyIs

🎶 #NowPlaying 🎶

Close the door
And take the stairs
Up or down
Ups and downs
Well, don't pretend
You've never been there

You kiss me like an
Over-dramatic actor
Who's starving for work
With one last shot
To make it happen

Drawing of a bright red sunrise over two green hills in a forest with a deer looking at the sun in the background. A large tree is in the foreground. This is a remake of the cover for Almost Here by The Academy Is.

The original cover to compare too.

Free will is so cool because I can redraw anything I want. Even something as simple as an album over I like a lot. #art #artist #poppunk #theacademyis

take a trip back to the good ol days with my ever growing faceless bandom instax painting collection 📸🤘🏻

how many do you recognize?!

On this day in 2005 #TheAcademyIs released their debut album, Almost Here on #FueledByRamen

Featuring the singles Checkmarks, Slow Down & The Phrase That Pays, it is still a fantastic album. Really love the opener Attention!

Hello, Spotify. Yes, "Beware! Cougar!" is definitely still one of my favorite The Academy Is... songs. It makes me smile every time I hear it.
