Not Joking

This is the life that almost killed me This life, it made me walk away But you know how life moves in circles This is a character I play This is the theater I was born into Some of my stuff's still there today Always only doing it for the room Like I was born to entertain Don't laugh, it's not funny Don't joke, I'm not joking The curtain is closing So just clap and keep smiling But don't laugh, no-no-no-no-no Don't laugh This is the fear that I was born into Somehow affects me still today Always afraid of knowing what to do but Those who are blessed shall not complain You don't know me Not how you used to I was never cool I thought I told you Don't laugh, it's not funny Don't joke, I'm not joking The curtain is closing So just clap and keep smiling But don't laugh Don't laugh, it's not funny Don't joke, I'm not joking The curtain is closing So just clap and keep smiling But don't laugh, no-no-no-no-no Don't laugh Don't laugh, no-no-no-no-no Don't laugh
