[Verse 1: Mike Hranica, Mike Hranica & Jeremy DePoyster]

It's so hard to recognize

That these diamonds fail to glow

Take pills to ease my mind

As long as I don't feel alone

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Hranica]

In debt to become incomplete

Step back 'til we hear the song repeat

Watch as I become obsolete

Step back and

[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster, Mike Hranica & Jeremy DePoyster]

Welcome to the way down

Keep on telling, selling me a way out

Another offer of a faultless life now

But I think I'll just keep it inside

Stitch it up and wear it with pride

[Verse 2: Mike Hranica]

What's fake is always on my mind

Like money makes the rivers flow

Contact the sacred valley

Let it know, all its trees must go

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Hranica]

In debt to become incomplete

Step back 'til we hear the song repeat

Watch as I become obsolete

Step back and

[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster, Mike Hranica, Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]

Welcome to the way down (Way down)

Keep on telling, selling me a way out (Way out)

Another offer of a faultless life now (Life now)

But I think I'll just keep it inside (Woah-oh-oh)

Stitch it up and wear it with pride

[Post-Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster]

(Welcome to the way down)

[Bridge: Mike Hranica]

They enforce that you don't matter

Man's horns dictate thereafter

But I'll fight, have a chance at this

Fight the chains, fight the engine's hiss

[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]

Step back

Step back and—

[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyter, Mike Hranica, Mike Hranica & Jeremy DePoyster]

Welcome to the way down (Way down)

Keep on telling, selling me a way out (Way out)

Another offer of a faultless life now (Life now)

But I think I'll just keep it inside (Woah-oh-oh)

Stitch it up and wear it with pride

[Outro: Mike Hranica]

Step back
