Life is all a joke

Lyrics

[Intro joker eerie laughing] [Choir solo of joker] "You know... time is a funny thing. Everyone thinks they're in control. But they’re not. They’re just part of the big joke. And when you can't sleep... that's when you start to get the punchline." [Break beeping alarm clock] [Verse 1] Lying awake, staring up at the space Clock is sprinting, but I’m stuck in place Night slips away way faster than it should Body wants rest, man, I wish that it could Brain on overdrive, running through the stress ​[Hook] Dying on the clock, yeah, I’m killing dead time Staring at the wall while I’m losing my mind Seconds turn to ghost towns, minutes hit a wall Waiting for a future that don't answer when I call Yeah, it’s dead time, dead time, running on empty Living in the silence while the dark tries to tempt me [Vers2] Trying to calm down, but my head is a mess Screen starts to flicker, then the WiFi drops Power cuts out and the whole block stops Darkness hits hard, total silence in the street While my heart stays pounding to a frantic beat [Vers3] Standing at the back of the line for a break Wide awake in the dark, watching static in my wake Counting my breaths, but they’re coming too fast Chasing a moment that’s already past Neighborhood's sleeping, breathing in the black I’m just trapped in my head with no turning back [Pre-Chorus] All moving fast, yeah, it goes too fast Slipping through my fingers like sand in the glass We just wait in line, trying to get our turn While time takes the land and we watch it burn ​[Hook] Dying on the clock, yeah, I’m killing dead time Staring at the wall while I’m losing my mind Seconds turn to ghost towns, minutes hit a wall Waiting for a future that don't answer when I call Yeah, it’s dead time, dead time, running on empty Living in the silence while the dark tries to tempt me
