Famous for Falling Apart

I got good at going down in style

I wear my wreckage like a tailored fit
Clean white smile with a burn through it
Say I'm fine with my fingers crossed
Looking expensive while I come apart

I know the lines, I know the pose
How to make a breakdown look composed
A little charm, a little self-destruction
Turned bad habits into public function

Everybody loves a beautiful mess
Till it starts bleeding through the press

I'm famous for falling apart
Making a scene, then making it art
Every room knows my favorite part
Smile too wide, break right at the start

I'm famous for falling apart
Crash in the dark, light up the sparks
If you came close, you probably got scars
Yeah, I'm famous
Famous for falling apart

I keep bad news in a leather coat
Sing it loud till it almost floats
Every goodbye gets one last chorus
Every wrong turn still looks enormous

I got a talent for burning clean
Turning panic into something mean
Everybody thinks it's just a phase
Till I light the room with the mess I make

And I know
How this story sounds
But I still show up
When the walls come down

I'm famous for falling apart
Making a scene, then making it art
Every room knows my favorite part
Smile too wide, break right at the start

I'm famous for falling apart
Crash in the dark, light up the sparks
If you came close, you probably got scars
Yeah, I'm famous
Famous for falling apart

No, I never learned subtle
Never did quiet well
I always hit bottom
Like I was aiming for it myself

So if I go down tonight
Let it look like a headliner exit
Let it shake the floor
Let them sing it back in the wreckage

Somebody call it a problem
I call it proof I was here
Somebody call it a spiral
I call it loud and clear

I'm famous for falling apart
Making a scene, then making it art
Every room knows my favorite part
Smile too wide, break right at the start

I'm famous for falling apart
Crash in the dark, light up the sparks
If you came close, you probably got scars
Yeah, I'm famous
Famous for falling apart
