After the Laughter

They always say you'll be back again
But in the end you never win
A tried and true comes back at you
And there's nothing you can do

In old ways I step over the candle
Young guns get a hole in your head
Came clean, marked a big mistake
And there's no looking back

After the laughter
You drag my pain away
After the laughter
I'm moving on through the rain

Leaden eyes at my every step
Barbed wire on every fence
Hunger pain coming back again
It ain't forgiveness, this is a sin

Is it cold to do what you say?
This could be a big mistake
The simple truth is killing me
Take me out of misery

After the laughter
You drag my pain away
After the laughter
I'm moving on through the rain

Faster and faster
After the laughter
Faster and faster
After the laughter

They say you're laughing at this medicine
But can you expel the voices in my head?
They're all laughing at me
They're all laughing at me

They're all laughing at me

After the laughter
You drag my pain away
After the laughter
I'm moving on through the rain

Faster and faster
After the laughter
Faster and faster
After the laughter

After the laughter
After the laughter
After the laughter
After the laughter
