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 a happy endings
Oh, the joke is on you

To make sure yesterday doesn't repeat
I took the shortcut home, I left on the street I know
They won't find me here

I found out how to make my mama proud
Be real quiet, don't talk too loud
I tried, I tried to disappear

My life is for the taking
Break down as you're waking
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 a happy endings
Oh, the joke is on you

This is my last day
Should have had my first kiss
Thanks to myself, will I ever be missed?
I hope, or maybe I don't care

I wear my team around my neck
I love 'em so much, gotta love 'em to death
Tonight, I see the world through my eyes

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

When you find me in the morning
Hanging on a warning
Oh, the joke is on you

My big escape is my biggest mistake
I think you better turn around
Don't throw it away today, today

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 a happy ending
Oh, the joke is on you

The joke is on you
The joke is on you
The joke is on you
The joke is on you
