(There's always a downside)
Impossible together not ever happy apart
I cut myself to the bone again
Cut it too close to the heart
Quicksand might look like it's safe
(There's always a downside)
I fool myself again, again I fool myself
The fairytale is like life
You're in the ground by the end
You're crucified by your friends, hanging high
All these aches and pains
(Attempting to abstain)
Away from all their games
(Success is self contained)
Proving I'm to blame
(It's time I bear this shame)
I feel whole this way
So throw it all away
As I lie awake
(With every breath you take)
Every promise you break
(As I call your name)
I fool myself again, again I fool myself
It's coming to a close
(That's just the way it goes)
Like when the red wine flows
(I know I'm not alone)
We're drowning drunk and stoned
(Embracing the unknown)
No time left to atone
A chain is only as strong
This goin' on too long
Where did it all go wrong?
I'm not the source of pain
Attempting to abstain
Away from all their games
(Success is self contained)
I throw it all away
It's time I bear this shame
You've got your life in your hands
You'll come back just like pretend (surprise)
Hold on to what you can remember
Make sense of what you can decipher
Concentrate on accomplishing new things
And just be happy with what you get
Everything has a downside to it
All these aches and pains
(Attempting to abstain)
Away from all their games
(Success is self-contained)
Proving that I'm to blame
(It's time I bear this shame)
I feel whole this way
So throw it all away
As I lie awake
With every breath I take
Every promise you break
It's coming to a close
A child that never knows
Like when the red wine flows
I know I'm not alone
We're drowning drunk and stoned
There is a God you'll never know
This is the way the story goes
(It's coming to a close)
This is the way the story goes
(It's coming to a close)
This is the way the story goes
(Hangin' high)
This is the way the story goes
(It's coming to a close)
That's just the way the story goes
It's comin' to a close!
