Joke's On Us - Framing Hanley

We’re like tree stumps with our feet stuck, we’re rooted

In ignorance, indifferent and clueless

Breathing poison while destroying all that we touch

The joke’s on us

This place has had its ambiance

Altered, and we ignore mistakes

Of our fathers, another bullet in

The chamber, listen as the echo lingers

Disregarding all the signs

Playing God and testing time

I never fought enough for the right things

I was too caught up till it was too late

Destroyed the evidence, the burden is heavy

My hands are bloody

I can see the edge on the horizon

Never thought the end would be so inviting

At the precipice, this burdern’s too heavy

And my hands are bloody

Wake me up if I’m dreaming

Because I’m lost on this never-ending road

And I’m close to conceding

Wake me up, I just wanna go home

A pirouette, after landin' on my feet, yeah

Runnin' for cover, runnin' for cover

Can’t disconnect from the weight I’m carrying, no

Pushin' me under

Disregarding all the signs

My future falling out of focus

Playing God and testing time

I really hope that no one noticed

I never fought enough for the right things

I was too caught up till it was too late

Destroyed the evidence, the burden is heavy

My hands are bloody

I can see the edge on the horizon

Never thought the end would be so inviting

At the precipice, this burdern’s too heavy

And my hands are bloody

Wake me up if I’m dreaming

Because I’m lost on this never-ending road

And I’m close to conceding

Wake me up, I just wanna go home

The joke’s on us

The joke’s on us

Wake me up, I just wanna go home

The joke’s on us

The joke’s on us

I never fought enough for the right things

I was too caught up till it was too late

Destroyed the evidence, the burden is heavy

My hands are bloody

Wake me up if I’m dreaming (running)

Because I’m lost on this never-ending road (running)

And I’m close to conceding

Wake me up, I just wanna go home

The joke’s on us

The joke’s on us

Wake me up, I just wanna go home
