Tragedy Time

On the edges of the sharpest knives

In the middle of the darkest nights

Always knew that I would find you here

In a puddle of the bravest tears



I've seen enough to know it's lonely where you are

Above the crowd

Feet dangling from a rooftop (a rooftop)

She waits from ledges for a voice to talk her down



Nothing matters but the pain when you're alone

Never-ending nights when you're awake

When you're praying that tomorrow it's okay

There will be a time to crack another smile

Maybe not today or for a while

But we're holding on to laugh again some day

To laugh again some day



All that matters is the time we had

Doesn't matter how it all went bad

Never wonder what it might be like

Shut the door, say goodbye



When faced with tragedy

We come alive or come undone

So don't hold back, let it shape you like an ocean

Even the deepest scars in time will fade



Nothing matters but the pain when you're alone

Never-ending nights when you're awake

When you're praying that tomorrow it's okay

There will be a time to crack another smile

Maybe not today or for a while

But we're holding on to laugh again some day

Yeah, we're holding on to laugh again some day



And sometimes you have to go back

To know just where you were then

But we're old enough to know that

What has been, will be again and again



And the bravest of faces are the ones where we fake it

And the roles that we play



Nothing matters when the pain is all but gone

When you are finally awake

Despite the overwhelming odds, tomorrow came



And when they see you crack a smile

And you decide to stay a while

You'll be ready then, to laugh again



Nothing matters but the pain

(We are tragedy, yeah, we are sympathy)

Nothing matters but the pain

You see what you want to see



Nothing matters but the pain

(We are misery, a distant memory)

Nothing matters but the pain

We all learned to laugh again

Yeah, we all learned to laugh again

We all learned to laugh again
