Laughing
When I
Should be
Crying

                     I've never
                     Been lonely
                     When I'm
                     Alone

                                          You're not here
                                          When I most
                                          Need you to be

                                                             ­  It was a lie
                                                             ­  When I said
                                                            ­   I always tell
                                                            ­   The truth

Crying
When I
Should be
Laughing

                     I've never
                     Been alone
                     When I'm
                     Lonely

                                          You're still here
                                          When I don't
                                          Need you to be

                                                             ­  It was the truth
                                                           ­    When I said
                                                            ­   I always tell
                                                            ­   Lies

These are
The little things
That never hurt

Until they
Become the
Only things
That do
