No Laughing by The Pavers Lyrics
This conversation just turned again
Why do we always end up talking about me and my lack of friends?
And I finally found a point to pin you down, and then
You duck, you swerve, you've struck a nerve again
Don't tell me nothing I can't do without
You say you're only trying to help me, but I have my doubts
Don't think you didn't yell at me
Just 'cause you didn't shout
Yeah, you're speaking softly
But thinking awfully loud
And I'd love to be right
And sometimes I almost am
Except the ten million reason
And the ways I don't understand
Had the lack of sense to believe
That I was doing alright
Long day tomorrow
Won't get no sleep tonight
Not tonight
Remember, once it's spoken it don't go away
The anger hops a freight train
The monsters always stay
Tomorrow's empty feelings ride the insults of today
Mouthful to earful
Be careful of what you say
And I'd love to be right
And sometimes I almost am
Except the ten million reason
And the ways I don't understand
Had the lack of sense to believe
That I was doing alright
Long day tomorrow
Won't get no sleep tonight
Not tonight
And I know I'm sorry
But don't laugh at me
I might even deserve it
But please don't laugh at me
See I'm on the run from my father's son
But he won't let me be
You're leaving me no place to hide
From my reflection in his eyes
He don't like me, and I don't know why
And I am haunted by my own life
So please don't laugh at me
Why do we always end up talking about me and my lack of friends?
And I finally found a point to pin you down, and then
You duck, you swerve, you've struck a nerve again
Don't tell me nothing I can't do without
You say you're only trying to help me, but I have my doubts
Don't think you didn't yell at me
Just 'cause you didn't shout
Yeah, you're speaking softly
But thinking awfully loud
And I'd love to be right
And sometimes I almost am
Except the ten million reason
And the ways I don't understand
Had the lack of sense to believe
That I was doing alright
Long day tomorrow
Won't get no sleep tonight
Not tonight
Remember, once it's spoken it don't go away
The anger hops a freight train
The monsters always stay
Tomorrow's empty feelings ride the insults of today
Mouthful to earful
Be careful of what you say
And I'd love to be right
And sometimes I almost am
Except the ten million reason
And the ways I don't understand
Had the lack of sense to believe
That I was doing alright
Long day tomorrow
Won't get no sleep tonight
Not tonight
And I know I'm sorry
But don't laugh at me
I might even deserve it
But please don't laugh at me
See I'm on the run from my father's son
But he won't let me be
You're leaving me no place to hide
From my reflection in his eyes
He don't like me, and I don't know why
And I am haunted by my own life
So please don't laugh at me
