Sick Joke

confusion's taken over me
lost in the wreckage and drowning in the deep
does all of this build to a crushing punchline?
or is the solution just to grow a fucking spine?

let me know if this is all a joke
because at this point I can't tell
who the fuck do you think you're kidding?
or do you now believe yourself?

like a terminal illness
to a suicidal man
it's all that I wanted
but not how I wanted it

across my width and breadth
laughter dies a death

oh it's nothing but a failsafe
if the lock breaks
if the lion wakes
in the den
so wash your hands clean
purge the stale dream
drowned in the piss stream
in the end

the lights are on
but there's no one home
it's all part of my sick joke
