The Lost Nites - The Punchline Lyrics

I should've died a thousand times
Poison drunk stumbling through the West side
Waiting for you baby
I thought that you might change your mind
The cops might leave and maybe we
Could stop acting so crazy
It'd be so easy for me to love somebody else
I'm just not acting like myself
I stayed with you on the East too long
Til everything that was good about me was gone
And I had to fake it
A tailspin that could never end
Coming in leaving
Coming back again
All the years we wasted
It seems so easy for you to love somebody else
That's just you acting like yourself
Here comes the punchline
Baby I'm your clown
Here comes the punchline
Bringing me down
You say you're sorry and I think it's true
But I can't trust a thing I think since I've been with you
And I have to face it
I play it cool but the past won't leave
All the things we did keep coming back to me
And I can't erase them
It seems so strange that we would love anybody else
Maybe we're just acting
Here comes the punchline
Baby I'm your clown
Here comes the punchline
Bringing me down
