The Downfall of Us All Lyrics

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da, da-da
Da, da, da, da-da, da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da
Let's go

It's not easy making a name for yourself
Where do you draw the line?
I never thought I'd be in this far
Let's have some fun and never change, not for anyone
Try not to miss me when I'm gone

(Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
I sold my soul to the open road
(I'll live my life alone)

You won't find me in the same spot
Believe me, I could never stop
My life's turned upside down
Meet me out past the train tracks
I'm leaving and not coming back
You're right and I was wrong
This town will be the downfall of us all

I'm gonna need you to try to follow along
I did the best that I could to try to write you songs
Now go tell them we sold out, like we're the ones who changed
I write what I feel, I say what I mean, you can't buy sincerity

(Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
I sold my soul to the open road
(I'll live my life alone)

You won't find me in the same spot
Believe me, I could never stop
My life's turned upside down
Meet me out past the train tracks
I'm leaving and not coming back
You're right and I was wrong
This town will be the downfall of us all

Don't forget yourselves, we made up our minds
And we signed three, four, five on that dotted line
Don't forget yourselves, we made up our minds
And we signed three, four, five on that dotted line

You won't find me in the same spot
Believe me, I could never stop
My life's turned upside down
Meet me out past the train tracks
I'm leaving and not coming back
You're right and I was wrong
You won't find me in the same spot
Believe me, I could never stop
My life's turned upside down
Meet me out past the train tracks
I'm leaving and not coming back
You're right and I was wrong
This town will be the downfall of us all
This town will be the downfall of us all

Downfall of us all
Downfall of us all
Downfall of us all
Downfall of us all

What is the Meaning of The Downfall of Us All?

Ah, the sweet symphony of youthful rebellion and the open road. This tune is a classic anthem for those who feel stifled by their small-town roots, yearning for a life less ordinary. The lyrics are a testament to the band's refusal to conform or sell out, choosing instead to follow their own path - even if it leads them away from familiar grounds. With the repeated line "this town will be the downfall of us all," they warn against complacency and encourage listeners to break free from societal expectations. So pack your bags, bid adieu to that same old spot, and embrace the uncertainty of the open road – just don't forget where you came from!
