Crying, Crying

[Verse 1]

When in a room full of people I know

So tell me why do I feel so alone

They think they know me

But they only see me when I’m smiling, smiling

They love the girl who’s good for a laugh

But what they see is only a mask

And nobody asks if the other of me is dying, dying

[Chorus]

But when I’m in my room and I’m by myself

I don’t have to act happy for anyone else

But I wish I had somebody with me here

To kiss away the tears

The tears that I’ve been crying, crying

Crying, crying

[Verse 2]

And when I play I’m the happiest one

I sing and dance till the live cast is gone

But after they go

Only I know that I’ve been lying, lying

In this every day game of pretend

I always wind up in another dead end

Cause I do it too well

So no one can tell that I’ve been hiding, hiding

[Chorus]

Yeah when I’m in my room and I’m by myself

I don’t have to act happy for anyone else

But I wish I had somebody with me here

To kiss away the tears

The tears that I’ve been crying, crying

Crying, crying

[Bridge]

Crying, crying, crying, crying

I guess the joke is on me

The joke is on me

I guess the joke is on me

The joke is on me

[Chorus]

Yeah when I’m in my room and I’m by myself

I don’t have to act happy for anyone else

But I wish I had somebody with me here

To kiss away the tears

The tears that I’ve been crying, crying

Crying, crying

Oh crying crying, crying, crying

[Outro]

I guess the joke is on me

Oh the joke is on me

I guess the joke is on me

Oh the joke is on me

I guess the joke is on me
