The Avett Brothers - Down With The Shine lyrics

Down with the shine, the perfect shine That poisons the well, and ruins my mind I get took for a ride every time Down with the glistening shine It's in with the new, and out with the old Out goes the warm, and in comes the cold It's the most predictable story told It's in with the young, out with the old Down with the shine, the perfect shine That poisons the well, and ruins my mind I get took for a ride every time Down with the glistening shine A belly full of high-dollar wine A fat hand, a fat wallet too Things change and get strange With this movement of time It's happening right now to you Down with the shine, the perfect shine That poisons the well, and ruins my mind I get took for a ride every time Down with the glistening shine It's a real bad time to bring up the truth Though we've searched we found no Fountain of youth Not in Spain, no where near anywhere Close to here There's nothing good because nothing lasts And all that comes here, it comes here to pa** I would voice my pain but the change wouldn't last All that comes, it comes here to pa** Down with the shine, the perfect shine That poisons the well, and ruins my mind I get took for a ride every time Down with the glistening shine I get took for a ride every time Down with the glistening shine
