I Am The Joke

Verse 1

I woke up in my jeans again.

Same song stuck inside my head.

The mirror says I look like shit.

I say "thanks" and crawl back in.

Pre-Chorus

Light a smoke I don't even want.

Stare at the wall till the colors run.

Everything's funny till it's not.

Everything's fine till it's not.

Chorus

I'm the joke and you're the punchline.

I'm the wasted Saturday night.

I'm the laugh track on a broken TV.

I'm the nothing that you don't need.

Yeah, I'm the joke.

Verse 2

My car won't start, the sky is grey.

I show up late just to leave early.

Everyone's got somewhere to be.

I've got a couch and a slow decay.

Pre-Chorus

Pour a drink I don't even taste.

Watch my twenties go to waste.

Everything's cool till it's not.

Everything's fine till it's not.

Chorus

I'm the joke and you're the punchline.

I'm the wasted Saturday night.

I'm the laugh track on a broken TV.

I'm the nothing that you don't need.

Yeah, I'm the joke.

Bridge

And it's not that I want to die.

I just don't want to try this hard.

And it's not that I hate my life.

I just hate the way it's carved.

Loud.

Wrong.

Long.

Gone.

Chorus

I'm the joke and you're the punchline.

I'm the wasted Saturday night.

I'm the laugh track on a broken TV.

I'm the nothing that you don't need.

Outro

I'm the joke.

I'm the joke.

Yeah, I'm the joke.

You can laugh now.
