Stay Pretty Lyrics
Well, you've been living a lie by your own admission
My patience has been hard enough to fake
And the secrets you save for your new physician
Are leaving me with one ear on the safe
And the holes in your story increase suspicion
Your witnesses have all been on the take
And we can give it a gamble under one condition
You'll have to take your foot off the, foot off the brake
So give up and give in and start over again
But be honest, cause you're all I need
It's pathetic
Why can't we get it straight?
Well, you've been compromised by your new position
They're looking up your skirt, for heavens sake
And your army of fakes that refuse to listen
Will end up in designer, shallow graves
It's true
The torture and tears have become tradition
But the something on the side is what takes the cake
And the surplus of uppers and apparitions
Are the only things that keep me up, keep me awake
So give up and give in and start over again
But be honest, cause you're all I need
It's pathetic
Why can't we get it straight?
So stay up and stay in
Yeah, I'll say it again
Look beyond this
There's a big picture that you're missing
Framed by the first mistake
By the bags under your eyes
I can see that you've packed for the week
So hang up this shit for the neighbors to see
Writing won't save the world
So you best stay pretty, girl
So give up and give in and start over again
But be honest, cause you're all I need
It's pathetic
Why can't we get it straight?
So stay up and stay in
Yeah, I'll say it again
Look beyond this
There's a big picture that you're missing
Framed by the first mistake
By the first mistake
By the first mistake
Framed by the first mistake
My patience has been hard enough to fake
And the secrets you save for your new physician
Are leaving me with one ear on the safe
Your witnesses have all been on the take
And we can give it a gamble under one condition
You'll have to take your foot off the, foot off the brake
But be honest, cause you're all I need
It's pathetic
Why can't we get it straight?
They're looking up your skirt, for heavens sake
And your army of fakes that refuse to listen
Will end up in designer, shallow graves
The torture and tears have become tradition
But the something on the side is what takes the cake
And the surplus of uppers and apparitions
Are the only things that keep me up, keep me awake
But be honest, cause you're all I need
It's pathetic
Why can't we get it straight?
So stay up and stay in

I LOVE THEM
Writing won't save the world So you best stay pretty, girl
lovelovelove
"writing won't save the world so you best stay pretty girl"
best line of the entire song. made me fall in love with farewell all over again.
i'm not really so sure maybe it means that the guys kinda tired of problems getting together with the girl, like problems she's creating for the both of them so he's kinda calling her out on that?
great song nonetheless
i hadnt even heard of farewell before i heard this song now i know what im missing out on great song x
omg i love this song.... its awesome =] jajaja idk why this song doesn't have more comments but yeah its awesome =]
I think the song's about the guy crushing on a girl with a lot of fake friends, and she's liked by everyone but she's kind of full of herself. He realizes that she's not really his type but he likes her anyway. "So you best stay pretty girl" = She's kind of a really obnoxious person, but she's pretty so people like her. She should stay pretty, cause otherwise people will see the real her.
I don't know, I could be completely wrong haha. Anyway, amazing song. I just found out about this band when I was looking at random tours going on.
They're amazing<3 I've been missing outt. [:
