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 has gone on too long where'd it all go wrong
You've got your life in your hands
You'll come back just like pretend surprise
Hold on to what you can remember,
Remember make sense of what you can decipher,
Decipher concentrate on accomplishing miracles
And just be happy with what you get
Everything has a downside to it
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
There is a god I've never known
The fairytale is like life
This is the way the story goes
It's coming to a close
You're crucified by your friends
This is the way the story goes
