Lyrics
The Laughing Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It’s a trap
And I feel like I’m under attack
Should I speak the words I mean or should I just hold back?
With so much negativity,
How can you really see the best of me?
…And who’s to blame when blaming is the recipe
A mix of misery and apathy
This is a trap
And I should have seen it coming
“..And that’s the trouble, you can’t ever find a place that’s peaceful because there isn’t any. You may think there is, but once you get there when you’re not looking they’ll sneak up and write ‘fuck you’ right under your nose…” [the catcher in the rye]
This is a trap
I feel set up like I’m under attack
This is a trap
Should I say what I mean
Or should I just hold back?
You’re the unwanted ones
You’re the unwanted ones
Misery - Apathy
Today can be the first day of your life
Don’t shoot me down just to put us in the same place
Today can be the first day of your life
Wake up today and give this world a new face
Today can be the first day of your life
Today can be the first day of your life
