"Pretty Far Gone" lyrics

"Pretty Far Gone"

They say it's your city man
There's something here for everyone
But they don't have the something I need
Well hello darkness my old friend
I'm bathed in light and I can see the end
But they can't see what I see

Devil may care
When the eyes are cloudy
Don't find your way
Stay lost forever
Always on the verge
Of something scary
Don't look down
All pretty far gone
Well nothing runs clean
In this great regression
One in a million here
We tune in to see
The fake plastic faces

It's always free to go further down
But it's never wise
To fight the walls in your hometown

They say that it's so pretty man
There's someone here for everyone
But I've already got the one I need
They call me a killer man
But I just live like the river man
I wash out to sea

Running on a dream
No destination
All white noise
Stay lost forever
Always on the edge
Of a bad decision
We may be here
But we're pretty far gone
We're pretty far gone
We're pretty far gone
We're pretty far gone

It's all the rage this place in line
But it's never wise
To fight these wars in 4/4 time

See these memories
Melt away
Like chalk outlines
In the rain
Life goes on
It seems so wrong
That we're still here
But we're pretty far gone

What you love you lose
It'll fade away
Like a bruise
Fool's gold forever
The earth still turns
But we're standing still
And the fire burns
Fool's gold forever
Fool's gold forever (See these memories)
Fool's gold forever (Melt away)
(Like chalk outlines)
(In the rain) (We're pretty far gone)
Fool's gold forever (Life goes on)
Fool's gold forever (It seems so wrong)
(That we're still here)
(But we're pretty far gone)

What you love you lose
It'll fade away
Like a bruise
Fool's gold forever
The earth still turns
But we're standing still
And the fire burns
Fool's gold forever
