Long Way Down

I've got a story I could tell ya But it's nothing like the fairytales they sell to All the pretty ladies and all the pretty men Who fake it till they make it, yeah they only play pretend See I'm talking 'bout heart revolution A take it from the start constitution But everybody's got another secret they could kill Never did it for the glory, no it's all about the thrill It's like a crack in the mirror A "get a heart attack" kinda thriller An "I know what you did" kinda killer Everybody knows its coming It's a long way down It's a long way down There's a blessing in the river that you're only gonna find When you've been to the bottom, you can talk about the climb It's a long way down It's a long way down Got a feelin' you've been dealin with the devil on the side It's no wonder that there's nothing but trouble on your mind It's kinda hard to deliver When the only thing we want is to be richer Cuz we're fallin over backwards just to make another dime Yea we're living for the moment, but we're wasting all our time It's time we had a new resolution To break apart the old institutions Cuz no one else can save us, and nobody ever will So let's take it to the river, dive in deeper, deeper still It's like a crack in the mirror A "get a heart attack" kinda thriller An "I know what you did" kinda killer Everybody knows its coming It's a long way down It's a long way down There's a blessing in the river that you're only gonna find When you've been to the bottom, you can talk about the climb It's a long way down It's a long way down Got a feelin' you've been dealin with the devil on the side It's no wonder that there's nothing but trouble on your mind
