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 gonna lose with my chin out

And that's the funny thing

Taking 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

Taking 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)

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)
