I'm Only Laughing

Lately I have a heart, I've been crying

I'm not laughing at that, I'm laughing because we're dying

In almosts and nevers and lost meanwhiles

I can feel it all and I need no smiles

I'm not laughing at that, I'm laughing because we're dying

Sometimes when I convince myself I'm not lying

I can feel it all and I need no smiles

Other times I tell you what you want to hear

Sometimes when I convince myself I'm not lying

I'm not laughing at that, I'm laughing because we're dying

Other times I tell you what you want to hear

And it's a mask around my soul that you hold dear

I'm not laughing at that, I'm laughing because we're dying

Between all these blank smiles so good at lying

And it's a mask around my soul that you hold dear

Lately I have a heart, I've been crying
