What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
To the bottom of the mineshaft
2
The list of things I used to be is longer than the list of things I am
3
Ex-lover, ex-friend
4
Ex-communicated atheist, ex-patriot
5
Living in the heartland
6
Living on the small chance
7
Luck would save the last dance
8
For an underrated writer, overrated rapper
9
Undecided major on an unrelated matter
10
One day I'd like to say what all the tug-o'-war was for
11
More than slack rope, more than sun stroke
12
Them rum soaked in sad jokes at rap shows
13
Some folks know how slow that trap closes,
14
Prose is closest I've ever been to feeling like I found it
15
I'm not a writer I just drink a lot about it
16
If diamonds are a girl's best friend
17
Then you can share a fine laugh and you can
18
Send me back to the bottom of the mineshaft
19
I've been here before and I know where it goes
20
It goes down
21
I've been here before and I know where it goes
22
It goes down (It goes down)
23
Snow falls fast and thin
24
Angels ash Virginia Slims
25
And if we've come a long way then I suspect it sideways, further from our origin,
26
No closer to our destination
27
I'm bad with names, shit, I'm bad with faces
28
I'm bad with bills and little kids and well-lit places
29
I'm beginning to write like Anna Karenina, give me a minute, a mic
30
A little to like, get rid of the spite, a bit of the pride to fight
31
You tried, you're right fried (you're live on all lines)
32
You're tired, you're fired
33
You're inside of the lie
34
It's a brilliant design
35
It's like, "Just act surprised"
36
I lost some money on the weighted dice
37
I lost an octave to the Camel Lights
38
And when I lost you, I lost some good love and a hand to bite
39
I lost a friend to my wit and my pride
40
I'd rather sit while you drive
41
I've been here before and I know where it goes
42
It goes down
43
I've been here before and I know where it goes
44
It goes down (It goes down)
45
The plans that we made and the bills and the planes over downtown
