The Joke

I'm a phony
Oh, I'm so lonely
If you take it all from me
You'll leave here with nothing
A sad stack of bones
I see her in the corner
What a shameful thing to boast
The most confused woman

Skin folding into skin
My body betrays me
What comfort can be felt
When all you know is empty
If you stare at me too long
Do I become you
Please give me both your hands
Tell me the day is over

Can you tell me what's left
I hear you crying
In the middle of the night
Where are you going
Can you hеlp me understand
What all the fuss is
All my sеnses are wrong
Oh, what a way to live

I'm trapped within the twilight
Searching for reason
My legs don't touch the ground
Yet I am sunken
You can't push me till I fall
I'm already floating
If I scream will you come running
Will you come catch me

All I wanted was love
But love won't find me
Oh, the sky is full of doves
I hear them flying
All I wanted was love
But love can't find me
Even if my heart is numb
I swear I'm not hiding

All I needed was to hope
Who knew that I'd become the joke
All I needed was to hope
Who knew that I'd become, I'd become the joke
The joke, the joke, the joke
The joke, the joke, the joke
The joke, the joke, the joke
The joke, the joke, the joke
