[Verse 1]
I've been fuckin' around while you've been saving the world
I've been out of my mind
I've been dreaming things and scheming things
I've been smoking the poison
You've been slinging your anecdotes
I've been fuckin' around while you were saving the world
From Nothing

[Pre-Chorus]
In the End, the end
Things will never go our way
In the end, the end
Things will never go

[Chorus]
So take it in don't hold your breath
The bottom's all I've found
We can't get higher than we get
On the Long Way Down
On the Long Way Down
On the Long Way Down

[Verse 2]
Burnin' mud in my eyes
Blinding me from the truth
If there's a shadow in me
The dark is a tidal wave inside of you
Take a shot at communion
Gettin' drunk on your antidote
I'll save you the seat next to me
Down below
[Pre-Chorus]
In the end, the end
Everyone will go away
In the end, the end
Everything will go

[Chorus]
So take it in don't hold your breath
The bottom's all I've found
We can't get higher than we get
On the Long Way Down
On the Long Way Down
On the Long Way Down

[Bridge]
Down, Down, Down, Down
On the long way down
On the long way down
Down, down, down, down

[Chorus]
So take it in don't hold your breath
The bottom's all I've found
We can't get higher than we get
On the Long Way Down
