Downfall Lyrics
There's somethin' 'bout the window seats got you feeling like a poet
You said, "I think that we had everything, until now just didn't know it"
I'm leanin' towards a subject change in a sentimental moment
We're drivin' through the Garden State, we'll be strangers in the mornin'
The way you've got your hair up straight makes you look real Californian
You know you never really could quite place when I'm angry and I'm jokin'
I'm cursin' every exit sign and my damn Christ-like devotion
To hopin' you might change your mind, and to hatin' you for goin'
Roadkill fawn, you said, "How sad"
Left to rot alonе like that
You state a feelin' like a fact
I'm glad you lеft, but you'll be back
So call me when it goes to shit
I'll be keepin' the house the way it was
I won't rub your face in it
I swear I won't tell anyone
I don't mind being your dead end
I think it's fine to never move on
Keep my ear up to the doorframe
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
Call me when the bugs don't die and the spring looks just like autumn
Oh, tell me when you miss the climb from a hole that has no bottom
I'm hoping that the view ain't nice, that the streetlights bleed into your bedroom
That you open up to someone kind, and they hold it all against you
Roadkill fawn, you said, "How sad"
Left to rot alone like that
You state a feelin' like a fact
I'm glad you left, but you'll be back
So call me when it goes to shit
I'll be keepin' the house the way it was
I won't rub your face in it
I swear I won't tell anyone
I don't mind being your dead end
I think it's fine to never move on
Keep my ear up to the doorframe
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
So call me when it goes to shit
I'll be keepin' the house the way it was
I won't rub your face in it
I swear I won't tell anyone
I don't mind being your dead end
I think it's fine to never move on
Keep my ear up to the doorframe
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
And I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
Oh, I'll keep rootin' for your downfall
