The joke’s on me
You read me lines I believed foolishly
Is it funny now? Because the joke’s on me
You played your part perfectly mentally
Just a pretty dream, a make-believe, and I
I believed and I
Take, take every kiss
Take the excuse as you pressed on my lips
Take, take every word
Take every memory, take what you hurt
Take a bow to the crowd
The joke’s on me
And did you know
When you looked at me the way you did before
Did you know that you were full of shiny tricks?
Promises never kept, illusionist
Did you know it then ’cause I believed and I
I believed and I
Take, take every kiss
Take the excuse as you pressed on my lips
Take, take every word
Take every memory, take what you hurt
Take a bow to the crowd
The joke’s on me
Take a bow to the crowd
The joke’s on me
Take a bow, you must be proud
The joke’s on me
