-jokers and clowns-

You say you are not a joker
I scoff at your 'intelligence'
You glare at me, its all right
I am a clown too

I paint my face
You put a mask on
You hide from me
I hide from me too

You want to make me love you
It only makes me despise you
They will laugh at you
Its only because they are jokers too

I will never know the inner you
Because all you want for me to see is not you
Dont fret though, its not really a problem, you see
For, the inner me, i hate too

Its night and the shows over now
The paint on my face fails to smear
The mask on your face refuses to come off
Tell me now, that you are not a joker
And i will honestly laugh at you.
