Joke

by Cori S.



Ever feel alone,

Ever feel ashamed?



Guess I should’ve known

How I’d sound today.



Every step I take, heartfelt sent replies,

Everybody thinks

That it’s all just one big lie



Oh, trying hard to say

Trying hard to say

I know it’s easier to laugh away

things that make me ache.



Everything’s a joke,

Everything’s a play,



Easier to mope

Then to listen in.



sure you’ve got it rough, no one really minds,

Spilling out your heart

Isn’t something people buy



Oh, trying hard to say

Trying hard to say

I know it’s easier to laugh at me

So please, just laugh away



Always with the jokes, tricker has his ways

Stupid dumbass guys

Couldn’t guess the reason why



Oh, trying hard to say

What I can’t explain

I try to find a way to say

Honest thoughts that stay



Even when it’s play

Laughing all the way

I will take the blame

If that makes it okay.
