The Pavers - No Laughing lyrics

rate me

This conversation just turned again.<br />

Why do we always end up talking about me and my lack of friends?<br />

And I finally found a point to pink you down, and then<br />

You duck you swerve you've struck a nerve again.<br />

<br />

Don't tell me nothing I can't do without.<br />

You say you're only trying to help me but I have my doubts.<br />

Don't think you didn't yell at me just 'cause you didn't shout.<br />

Yeah you're speaking softly but thinking awfully loud<br />

<br />

And I'd love to be right, sometimes I almost am, <br />

Except the ten million reasons and ways I don't understand.<br />

Had the lack of sense to believe that I was doing alright.<br />

Long day tomorrow, won't get no sleep tonight.<br />

<br />

Remember, Once it's spoken it don't go away.<br />

Though the anger hops a freight train the monsters always stay.<br />

Tomorrow's empty feelings ride the insults of today.<br />

Mouthful to earful be careful of what you say.<br />

<br />

And I know I'm sorry but don't laugh at me.<br />

I might even deserve it but please don't laugh at me.<br />

See, I'm on the run from my father's son but he won't let me be.<br />

You're leaving me no place to hide<br />

From my reflection in his eyes.<br />

He don't like me and I don't know why, <br />

And I am haunted by my own life.<br />

So please don't laugh at me.
