JonR - ISN'T THAT FUNNY Lyrics

Isn't that funny how we laugh through the pain
Hide behind jokes but inside we're insane
Pretend we're okay when we're breaking apart Smile on the surface but shadows in the heart
Isn't that funny how we keep the disguise
Talk about dreams but I see through the lies
Chasing the high but we fall every time
Running in circles hoping we'll find a sign
Isn't that funny how we're scared of the real
Afraid of the truth and the way that we feel
Telling ourselves that we're strong, we're fine
But deep down we're losing this war in our minds
Isn't that funny the way we pretend
Laugh at the pain when it hits us again
Tell me it's normal that everyone's hurt
But I'm here in the silence trying to find the words
Isn't that funny how the past won't let go
Keeps creeping back when you're trying to grow
Every mistake a weight on my chest
Trying to breathe but I'm feeling distressed
Isn't that funny how the hope fades away
Replaced by the doubt at the start of the day
Keep telling myself that I'll be okay
But in the silence I'm falling astray
Isn't that funny how we put on a show
Acting so strong but we're just so low
Hiding behind the stories pretending we're fine
But deep in the dark I'm losing my mind
Isn't that funny how the answers don't come
We search for the light but we're numb and we're dumb
Afraid of the fight but afraid to give in
Trapped in the cycle where do I begin
Isn't it funny how I stay in the dark
Holding my breath afraid to make a mark
Pretend I'm okay when my heart's on the line
Silent and scared afraid to say what's mine
Isn't it crazy how I let it slip by
Words caught in my throat too afraid to try
Chasing the moment but it fades away
Hoping you'll notice but I'm too afraid to say
Isn't it strange how we wear our disguise
Pretend we're unbreakable but we're barely alive
Hold back the pain keep it locked inside
Smile through the struggle and swallow our pride
Isn't it wild how we chase after fate
Clinging to the hope that it's never too late
But every step forward feels two steps back Running in circles lost in the cracks
Isn't it true that we fight with our mind
Trying to escape what we know we'll find
Dreams that we chase but they slip through our hands
Promises broken like castles in the sand
Isn't it hard to admit we're afraid
That all of our courage has started to fade
Still we keep going though it's tearing us apart
Hiding the battle in the depths of our heart
Isn't it real how we fear what's unknown
Afraid of the seeds we've already sown
We keep saying tomorrow but tomorrow won't come
Still waiting for answers still feeling numb
Isn't it painful how the past replaced
Every mistake every choice every face
Echoes in the silence whispers in the dark
Haunting reminders when we miss the mark
Isn't it lonely to stand in the crowd
Surrounded by noise but feeling so loud
The louder we get the quieter we feel
Searching for something that's broken but real
Isn't it desperate this need to belong
To find the strength in a place we went wrong
But even in doubt when hope's hard to find
We fight the silence and reclaim our mind
Isn't it funny how I stay in the dark
Holding my breath afraid to make a mark
Pretend I'm okay when my heart's on the line
Silent and scared afraid to say what's mine
Isn't it crazy how I let it slip by
Words caught in my throat too afraid to try
Chasing the moment but it fades away
Hoping you'll notice but I'm too afraid to say
