[00:02.527]I take the jokes like a punching bag
[00:05.855]I spin every sad thing into a gag
[00:09.091]I'm the one who says it's fine first
[00:12.291]The last to admit when I feel the worst
[00:17.182]Door clicks shut, the grin starts to fray
[00:20.564]I set down the act on the ceramic tray
[00:24.145]Then I sink to the floor, my legs give way
[00:27.709]And I stare at the crack where the walls turn grey
[00:32.018]Smile for the camera, wave your hand
[00:35.327]Make the small talk, keep it light
[00:38.655]I'm a paper boat on a sea of sand
[00:42.182]I keep this costume, but it never fits right
[00:46.855]Smile for the camera, wave your hand
[00:50.182]Make the small talk, keep it light
[00:53.127]I'm the plastic fern that looks so grand
[00:57.118]I'm a kite with a string that's never tied right
[01:16.409]Door clicks shut, the grin starts to fray
[01:19.918]I set down the act on the ceramic tray
[01:23.518]Then I sink to the floor, my legs give way
[01:27.064]And I stare at the crack where the walls turn grey
[01:31.264]Smile for the camera, wave your hand
[01:34.573]Make the small talk, keep it light
[01:37.427]I'm a paper boat on a sea of sand
[01:41.391]I keep this costume, but it never fits right
[01:46.009]Smile for the camera, wave your hand
[01:49.318]Make the small talk, keep it light
[01:52.209]I'm the plastic fern that looks so grand
[01:55.918]I'm a kite with a string that's never tied right
