The Joke

Lyrics

[Chorus] When you find me in the morning Hanging on a warning Oh... the joke is on you You said you were pretending Here's to unhappy endings Oh... the joke is on you [Verse 1] To make sure yesterday doesn't repeat I took a shortcut home, a left on the street I know they won't find me here I found out how to make mama proud Be real quiet don't talk too loud I try, try to disappear [Chorus 2] My life is for the taking Breakdown is awaking me I'm ending all this pain [Chorus] When you find me in the morning Hanging on a warning Oh... the joke is on you You said you were pretending Here's to unhappy endings Oh... the joke is on you [Verse 2] This is my last day Should have been my first kiss Think to myself will I ever be missed I hope... or maybe I don't care I wear my team around my neck I love them so much gonna love them to death Tonight... see the world through my eyes [Chorus 2] My life is for the taking Breakdown is awaking me I'm ending all this pain [Outro] My great escape Is my biggest mistake I think you better turn around Don't throw it away Today... today
