lyrics

I wish my voice
Sounded the same
As in my head

So it goes
In the balance of everything
Disguise appears

I tried to earn
The love of my friends
With a good sense of humour

Tell a joke
And pretend it's not funny
When nobody smiles

And I'm running out of lines now...

If only
I had lessons learned
To give instead

I'd already be
On my way home to you
By now my dear

My father warned me
Not to depend
On a ten dollar bill

For a while
I did anyway
I thought I had it all figured out

And the clowns they laugh at me now...
