The Biggest of Jokes

Verse 1:
Humours your cover, laughters your drug
Telling your jokes and acting all smug
You have to be heard and you have to be seen
But why do you never look at me

Verse 2:
She’s staring at you, she won’t look away
I know the game that she’s trying to play
A hand on your arm, and sat in my place
She’s trying so hard to take you away

Pre-Chorus:
I’m your girl
Yet you’re in a different world

Chorus:
You say the punchline and where do you look
Straight at her to see what she thought
Is it her that you’re trying to always impress?
While I stand and watch and hide the mess I’m in

Jokе after joke, you’re blowing smokе
Takes all of me to to hide that I’m starting to choke
I wait patient to see if you notice
But now I see I’m the biggest of jokes here

Verse 3:
I brought her up and you shut me down
You say that she’s nothing, just a friend you’ve found
Trying to trust the words out of your mouth
But what if you say, the quiet bit loud

Pre-Chorus:
I’m so scared
To live in a world without you here

Chorus:
When you said the punchline and I saw where you looked
Straight at her to see what she thought
Is it her that you’re trying to always impress?
I don’t wanna watch and be broken by this

Joke after joke you never choke
All along I’ve been by you side and I know
You love me enough to see where this goes
But baby I feel like I’m in love with your ghost

Bridge:
It hurts to know that if this was over
You’d be okay you’d have her as a cover
While all that I’d be left with are lies and denial
Which have played on my mind for not just a while

If I had to leave would I still be in love with
The version of you that seemed to just vanish
I see a blur, you insist that its clear
So what if my mind is the biggest of jokes here

Ending:
What if my mind...

What if my mind...

Oh, what if my mind
Is the biggest of jokes here?
