Lyrics

I wanted to laugh with all
The world lit up in borrowed joy
Some kind of glow I wasn’t meant to know
But I wanted it though

How do you laugh with all
When breath won’t come, and sound won’t form
So when they laughed, I echoed back
Like glass, reflecting cracks

I wanted to laugh with all
So I drew on me a rainbow
Hid myself beneath the skin
And laughed like I belonged

But even when I wept, or broke
The world just laughed like all a joke
Tears I buried filled my chest
But still, the mask did all the rest
Kept me laughing with them all

Then I saw you, standing still
No sound, no light, no painted thrill
Like a mirror from before
You looked like me, and nothing more

The only thing that caught my eye
The stage we stood on blurred and died
And in the light behind your gaze
The world just faded into haze

I wanna see
I need to know
You’re leading me
Somewhere new

To find the sound that lives in you
The kind of laugh that might be true

I thought I needed to laugh with all
But now, I wanna laugh with you
Leaving the mask where silence lives
To find the sound beneath the bruise

If we fall, we fall as two
If we cry, I’ll cry with you
Let’s paint this world in how we feel
With colors that are finally real

Let the rain fall from our eyes
Let the light burn through the lies
Under skies in rainbow hue
I just wanna laugh with you

I can see your smile
