Lyrics: Ray Saetta
Music: Ray Saetta
Yeah, I laugh 'cause it's easier
Than tellin' you why my world is on fire
And the scariest part is I'm starting to believe it
The person that I show, yeah, I'm starting to believe him
Somebody tells a story 'bout their weekend
And I nod my head and I force a grin
My face is doin' acrobatics
While my brain is swimmin' through the static
Anything to fill the dead air
Anything so they don't stare too long
And notice that my smile is drawn on wrong
Yeah, it's drawn on wrong
Yeah, I laugh 'cause it's easier
Than tellin' you why my world is on fire
And the scariest part is I'm starting to believe it
The person that I show, yeah, I'm starting to believe him
Don't remember when it started
This little habit, bein' lighthearted
Just a mask I put on for the day, see?
Now the strings are tangled up, it's crazy
And the face I see in mirrors now
He kinda learned to take a bow
He smiles back and I don't know him
Yeah, he smiles and I just, I just let him
Yeah, I laugh 'cause it's easier
Than tellin' you why my world is on fire
And the scariest part is I'm starting to believe it
The person that I show
I think I'm starting to believe him
