Downfall — Lyrics

Artist: Noah Kahan

Album: The Great Divide


Something 'bout the window seats got you feeling like a poet You said I think that we had everything but 'til now, just didn't know it I'm leaning towards a subject change in a sentimental moment We're driving through the Garden State, we'll be strangers in the morning 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 when I'm joking I'm cursing every exit sign and my damn Christ-like devotion To hoping you might change your mind, and to hating you for going Roadkill fawn, you said how sad Left to rot alone like that You state a feeling like a fact I'm glad you left, but you'll be back So call me when it goes to shit I'll be keeping 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 door-frame And I'll keep rooting for your downfall And I'll keep rooting 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 feeling like a fact I'm glad you left, but you'll be back So call me when it goes to shit I'll be keeping 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 door-frame And I'll keep rooting for your downfall And I'll keep rooting for your downfall So call me when it goes to shit I'll be keeping 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 door-frame And I'll keep rooting for your downfall And I'll keep rooting for your downfall And I'll keep rooting for your downfall Oh I'll keep rooting for your downfall
