Paroles de The Joke

No matter where I stray, no matter what I say
The dream's are always stronger than the real
My yes never quite as good as her maybe

Tis a truth that I try to deny
Tis a wall I pretend I can climb
Yes I can change my bitter to sweet
Swallow the blade and get back on my feet

I know that you know
The joke's on me
It always was, shall ever be
I know that you know
The joke's on me
It always was, shall ever be

So I'll come with my best smile
And I'll hide my pain with my pride
Yes I'll be as blind as you wish me to be
Not a cry, no a tear to reveal my fury

I've got two things I'd be better without
A brain and a heart
To remind me again and again
How easy it is to forget
One who was only a pawn in your game Tis a shame to still be surprised
The trick is old and I should be wise
And yet, I'm always so willing to believe
You can spare a little of what you don't need

I know that you know
The joke's on me
It always was, shall ever be
Tis a shame to still be surprised
The trick is old and I should be wise
And yet, I'm always so willing to believe
You can spare a little of what you don't need

Now walk away, for heaven sake's
Cool and still will no longer be
Build a heaven to cradle your ache
That's the one thing no one will take

I know that you know
The joke's on me
It always was, shall ever be

I know that you know
The joke's on me
It always was, shall ever be
