Why Do We Laugh When Our Hearts Want To Cry
Why do we laugh when our hearts want to cry?
To prove everyone you’re strong?
But why?
Is showing weakness that really wrong?
I’ll ask again
Why do we laugh when our hearts want to cry?
But we’re hoping a time when
Time could just quickly fly
One more time
Why do we laugh when our hearts want to cry?
But is doing so a crime?
More treacherous than a tainted lie?
Why am I laughing now?
As my heart wants to cry?
Somebody please teach me how
To accept one’s unsaid goodbye
