I remember an awkward kid Thin-skinned, feeling sick High school is hell for the sensitive Scared to death of being hit It didn't matter when my face met your first An easy target for narcissists Like you, like you, like you To those who never believed in me Another source for my anxiety Cut out, pound for pound Who's laughing, who's laughing now? Somewhere there's a light that's mine It's ok, a kid can fantasize It's such a shame Of all the days to have your pretty white teeth knocked from out of your face Without a doubt you'll never open your mouth Good thing that yours is a voice I can live without Who's laughing, who's laughing now? I guess the more things change, the more they stay the same There will be always be sadistic, parasitic fucks that prey on those just trying to make it through the day And what we learned from youth, a cycle of abuse But who cares to rationalize Let's gouge out their eyes Be strong for the first time To those who never believed in me Another source for my anxiety Cut out, pound for pound Who's laughing, who's laughing now? Somewhere there's a light that's mine It's ok, a kid can fantasize It's such a shame Of all the days to have your pretty white teeth knocked from out of your face Without a doubt you'll never open your mouth Good thing that yours is a voice I can live without Who's laughing, who's laughing now? That got so violent, nihilistic silence Of everyday monsters that we make That would burn their homes just to feel the warmth of flames Begged them to stop it Locked in the closet With the lights turned off Said you wouldn't cry but your stomach's tight Oh God And your face feels hot To those who never believed in me Another source for my anxiety Cut out, pound for pound Who's laughing, who's laughing now?
