Lyrics:
Verse 1:
I hope I see you on your way down.
I hope you break every bone.
I hope it kills you on your down.
And I hope you die alone.
Pre-Chorus 1:
All of your hate, and all of your lies. Will it be worth it?
When all of your friends refuse to be alibi's, will it be worth it?
Chorus 1:
I'll see you on your way down. (3x)
Verse 2:
It's kind of sad to watch you break down.
You greedy fuck, you pissed it all away.
So who will catch you on your way down?
You've only got yourself to blame.
Pre-Chorus 2:
When all your worst fears materialize, will it be worth it?
There's nobody left who cares you're alive; was it worth it?
Chorus 2:
I'll see you on your way down. (3x)
Bridge/Break:
Way down...
Way down...
Chorus 3:
I'll see you on your way down. (3x)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official STABBING WESTWARD tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
