"The Downfall of Us All" is a song by American rock band A Day to Remember from their third studio album Homesick.

[1] Shortly before playing at a gig, the band practiced a breakdown in A cappella, McKinnon proceeded to say that it would be a good idea to open Homesick (2009) with it, to which his bandmates said "Are you retarded?

[1] New Found Glory guitarist Chad Gilbert, who produced Homesick, was shown a demo of the song.

[6] AllMusic reviewer James Christopher Monger said "The Downfall of Us All" would gain an extra "life in countless montages on MTV reality shows and 30-second cola commercials".

"[8] Rock on Request reviewer Anthony Avina listed the song, alongside "Welcome to the Family" and "Homesick", as examples that displayed the group's "wide range of talent" on the album.
