[Verse 1] All of your pretty things Your petty pretty things are gone The ground beneath your feet Isnt the stable earth you thought A song so sweetly sung As if the offer would rescind Credit all firsthand accounts With need to write about and spin Mistakes Theyre all mistakes Are all mistakes [Chorus] But on the way down On the way down Before you can see All the way down You laugh with the pieces You just cant explain it all away The damage, even after you atone This is all you have to show [Verse 2] Your petty pretty things Those petty pretty things you lost Discerning tastes agree That who you used to be was awful To be true And now we see you Now we see you [Chorus] On the way down On the way down Before you can see All the way down You laugh with the pieces You just cant explain it all away The damage, even after you atone This is all you have to show for it
