The Departure

[Verse 1]
So pour me a drink
Else just leave me
Leave me in peace
In pieces and in thirst

[Verse 2]
I'd hold our edges together
Not that you'd know
You've known me at my worst

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Guess we have to keep on grinning
The smiles that hide a thousand miseries

[Chorus]
We should laugh our heads off
Else we'd cry, love
Blame's a funny word to say but hell it's close enough
We should laugh our heads off
Else we'd cry, love
Leave them with the jokes worn thin
And parties slowly winding up

[Verse 3 + 4]
And for every never you ever
Wished upon me
You'll suffer in return
But maybe we're all meant to break in time, love
Maybe in white sheets you'll see me before long

[Pre-Chorus 2]
All for one for all for nothing
Do we cover up our miseries?

[Chorus]
We should laugh our heads off
Else we'd cry, love
Blame's a funny word to say but hell it's close enough
We should laugh our heads off
Else we'd cry, love
Leave them with the jokes worn thin
And parties slowly winding up

[Bridge]
And our dreams, our scars, our stories, oh-oh
They fill the empty seats
So let me see your edges again
I can hold them, I can hold them

[Chorus]
We should laugh our heads off
Else we'd cry, love
Blame's a funny word to say but hell it's close enough
We should laugh our heads off
Else we'd cry, love
Leave them with the jokes worn thin
And parties slowly winding up
