She knows I know that she's not happy any more
She knows I know that I'm not father material
We've seen our share of weddings, and a couple of funerals
She knows I know that all good empires fall

Go to pieces, dancing drunk with her on the porch
Go to pieces, things meant far less than I thought

Tiptoed down the staircase, saw the writing on the wall
I saw our shadows in the corners, our expiry dates and all
I tried to count my blessings, the best parts come before the fall
And, you see, people like me?
Can't be the things you're looking for

Go to pieces, dancing drunk with her on the porch
Go to pieces, things meant far less than I thought
Go to pieces, mostly friends and nothing more
Go to pieces, I'm only human after all

Drunk and high, we almost died
We're everywhere at the end of time
We're everywhere at the end of time

Go to pieces, dancing drunk with her on the porch
Go to pieces, things meant far less than I thought
Go to pieces, mostly friends and nothing more
Go to pieces, I'm only human after all

Maybe I'm no better
Maybe the cycle just repeats
And I'd doom you to a life of melancholic mediocrity
But hey, yeah you, with the sad face
I am a hopeless case, and you're so damn pretty
But you couldn't love every part of me
And I don't need those things, I don't need your pity
And with that said, I'll make my peace
And with that said, I'll make my peace
