[Verse 1]
Fatefully, I t
ried to pick m

Misery, like
the war of wor
ds I shouted i
n my sleep
And you passe
d right by
I was in the a
lley, surround
ed on all side
s
The knife cut
s both ways
If the shoe fi
ts, walk in it
'til your hig
h heels break
[Chorus]
And I fell fr
om the pedesta
l
Right down the
rabbit hole
Long story sho
rt, it was a b
ad time
Pushed from t
he precipices
Clung to the n
earest lips
Long story sho
rt, it was the
wrong guy
Now I'm all a
bout you
I'm all about
you, ah
Yeah, yeah, y
eah, yeah

you, ah
Yeah, yeah, ye

[Verse 2]
Actually, I al
ways felt I mu
st look better
in the rear v
iew
Missing me, a
t the golden g
ates they once
held the keys
to
When I droppe
d my sword
I threw it in
the bushes and
knocked on yo
ur door
And we live i
n peace
But if someone
comes at us,
this time, I'm
ready
[Chorus]
'Cause I fell
from the pede
stal
Right down the
rabbit hole
Long story sho
rt, it was a b
ad time
Pushed from t
he precipices
Clung to the n
earest lips
Long story sho
rt, it was the
wrong guy
Now I'm all a
bout you
I'm all about
you, ah
Yeah, yeah, y
eah, yeah
I'm all about
you
