painted smile but I don't feel the part

in dream I hold your kinfe over my heart

the edge is higher the closer I get

when I jump you move the net



I keep falling for this slapstick heart



hanging on your words

I thought I'd known

the rope is cut and I'm falling on my own

the comedy in the tragic disbelief

of only human



to make you laugh is there nothing I won't do

any pain I won't go through

lost my balance fell like rain

I half expected you to do the same

but you cried an ocean and broke my fall

that's when I knew I couldn't swim at all
