It's A Joke

I swear that you can see with your eyes shut Head down, small town, do you sleep at all? Waiting for the feeling to fade, is it really that strange? Is it really that strange at all? Talk about the summer, but we're ice cold Say we're getting better, we just drink more I swear that you can see with your eyes shut You know I'm going to lose with my chin up And that's the funny thing, breaking ties Fragile nights All in spite (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) And bloodshot eyes Shaky nights Come untied (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) I swear that you can dance while you stand still Cold hands, fake laughs as we're waking up Look at how everything's changed, is it really that strange? Is it really that strange at all? Talk about your brother, he's in jail now Talk about your mother who just walked out Watch your city turning into a landfill I swear that you can dance while you stand still And that's the funny thing, breaking ties Fragile nights All in spit (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) And bloodshot eyes Shaky nights Come untied (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) You cry, you laugh, I can't relax (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) I shout, I shake and you say (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) You cry, you laugh, I can't relax (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) I shout, I shake and you say (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) And bloodshot eyes (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) Shaky nights Come untied (It's a joke, it's a joke, but I don't break a smile) --- It's a Joke - Boniface
