Falling through at the seams Living life in a dream Even smiles make a lie And I smile all the time I'm skilled at the art Of falling apart It's the holding together Together forever Trying all of the vices Is what's doing the damage All the good things are bad things And I'm paying the prices I'm skilled at the art Of falling apart It's the holding together Together forever I'm covered in bruises >From mixing with losers It's the black and the blue That's seeing me through My cigarette diet Means my throat hurts like hell My friends say I'm dying But I do it so well I'm skilled at the art Of falling apart It's the holding together Together forever
