A man falls into darkness now
Surrounded by these happy clouds
And it's getting hard to breathe
You wouldn't think it for one as strong as he
This man has many faces you see
And no one knows what lies beneath
Coz he won't let it show
He's the master of disguise.
They call him the laughing man
All the jokes attempt to hide the pain
Covers up to hide the scars away
Just call him the laughing man
But you will never know
You will never know
The pain behind his smile
Fades to the dark and cries for a while
He commands every room he's in
Charismatic and charming
He doesn't even know it
But he does well to show it.
There's upset behind those tears of joy
This man has been through more than they all know
But they just cast aside and let it go
Do they even care?
They call him the laughing man
All the jokes attempt to hide the pain
Covers up to hide the scars away
Just call him the laughing man
But you will never know
You will never know
The pain behind his smile
Fades to the dark and cries for a while
Someone please say something
Just one person say something
It's okay not to be okay
Someone please say something
Just one person say something
It's okay not to be okay
They call him the laughing man
But you will never know
You will never know
The pain behind his smile
Fades to the dark and cries for a while
Cries for a while
Cries for a while
