Victory Lap

[Verse 1]

Well, there's no more big time

No more bright lights

Just a guy who's drinking alone tonight

Should've walked back your mouth

Knocked you off your high horse

With all that worthless advice you endorse

Lost the limelight you were about

What's it like to gradually fade out?

Used to tear it all down, now you're tearing all up

Got 'em drippin' in your whiskey at the brass mug

[Pre-Chorus]

I've heard it all before

The murmurs and the whispers

I don't listen anymore

[Chorus]

Every time I rise, you fall away

It's the same story day after day

Your voice is like poison

You can't be me

Every time I rise, you fall away

Fall away!

[Verse 2]

Nothing's lost, we just don't abuse it

We're seven deep, we been caught up writing hits

Now you whine, cry, bitch, moan, say it's a waste

Sing along while I give you a taste

Yeah, here's to you and your favorite band!

Yeah, they suck, too!

I hear your cries

To the one you know you idolize!

[Pre-Chorus]

I've heard it all before

The murmurs and the whispers

I don't listen anymore

[Chorus]

Every time I rise, you fall away

It's the same story day after day

Your voice is like poison

You can't be me

Every time I rise, you fall away

Fall away!

[Bridge]

Keep tellin' those tall tales

And I'll call you out

[Guitar Solo]

I'll call you out

I'll call you out

[Chorus]

Every time I rise you fall away

All those worthless years, they're fading away!

Every time I rise you fall away

It's the same story day after day

Your voice is like poison

You can't be me

Every time I rise, you fall away

Fall away!
