The Joke — Lifehouse

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

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

My life is for the taking Breakdown is awaking me I'm ending all this pain

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

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

My life is for the taking Breakdown is erasing me I'm ending all this pain

My great escape Is my biggest mistake I think you better turn around Don't throw it away Today... Today...
