Slapstick Heart
painted smile but I don`t feel the part
in dream I hold your kinfe over my heart
the edge is higher the closer I get
when I jump you move the net
I keep falling for this slapstick heart
hanging on your words
I thought I`d known
the rope is cut and I`m falling on my own
the comedy in the tragic disbelief
of only human
to make you laugh is there nothing I won`t do
any pain I won`t go through
lost my balance fell like rain
I half expected you to do the same
but you cried an ocean and broke my fall
that`s when I knew I couldn`t swim at all
