Tragedy + Time

On the edges of the sharpest knives In the middle of the darkest nights Always knew that I would find you here In a puddle of the bravest tears I've seen enough to know it's lonely where you are Above the crowd, feet dangling from a rooftop She waits from ledges for a voice to talk her down And nothing matters but the pain when you're alone The never-ending nights when you're awake When you're praying that tomorrow it's ok There will be a time to crack another smile Maybe not today or for awhile But we're holding on to laugh again someday To laugh again someday All that matters is the time we had Doesn't matter how it all went bad Never wonder what it might be like Shut the door, say goodbye When faced with tragedy We come alive or come undone So don't look back, let it shape you like an ocean Even the deepest scars in time will fade And nothing matters but the pain when you're alone The never-ending nights when you're awake When you're praying that tomorrow it's ok There will be a time to crack another smile Maybe not today or for awhile But we're holding on to laugh again someday Now we're holding on to laugh again someday And sometimes you have to go back To know just where you have been But we're old enough to know that What has been will be again and again And the bravest of faces Are the ones where we fake it In the roles that we play Nothing matters when the pain is all but gone When you are finally awake Despite the overwhelming odds tomorrow came And when they see you crack a smile And you decide to stay awhile You'll be ready then to laugh again And nothing matters but the pain (We are tragedy, yeah, we are sympathy) And nothing matters but the pain (you see what you want to see) And nothing matter but the pain (We are misery and distant memories) And nothing matters but the pain (but we all learn to laugh again) Yeah, we all learn to laugh again Oh, we all learn to laugh again
