The Joke Lyrics

Lifehouse

When you find me in the morning Hanging on a warning Oh, the joke is on you
You said you were pretending Here's to a happy endings Oh, the joke is on you
To make sure yesterday doesn't repeat I took the shortcut home, I left on the street I know They won't find me here
I found out how to make my mama proud Be real quiet, don't talk too loud I tried, I tried to disappear
My life is for the taking Break down as you're waking I'm ending all this pain
When you find me in the morning Hanging on a warning Oh, the joke is on you
You said you were pretending Here's to a happy endings Oh, the joke is on you
This is my last day Should have had my first kiss Thanks to myself, will I ever be missed? I hope, or maybe I don't care
I wear my team around my neck I love 'em so much, gotta love 'em to death Tonight, I see the world through my eyes
My life is for the taking Break down is erasing me I'm ending all this pain
When you find me in the morning Hanging on a warning Oh, the joke is on you
My big escape is my biggest mistake I think you better turn around Don't throw it away today, today
When you find me in the morning Hanging on a warning Oh, the joke is on you
You said you were pretending Here's to a happy ending Oh, the joke is on you
The joke is on you The joke is on you The joke is on you The joke is on you

It should be: "I wear my team around my neck" love this song! it's about a 15 year old boy from England who hung himself because he was bullied all the time. Jason wrote the song in his perspective.
