I Want to Laugh

[Verse]
]You crack a joke, but it cuts like a knife,
Laughter that hides all the pain in our life.
You point your finger, and the room goes cold,
But I won’t laugh at the stories you’ve told.
Chorus
Don’t tell me I don’t have a sense of humor,
Just ‘cause I won’t dance to your tune of a rumor.
Your wit is not clever; it’s just a hot mess,
I’m looking for laughter that uplifts and does not oppress.
Verse 2
You think it's a game, just words on a stage,
But behind every punchline, I see all the rage.
I want to share joy, not tear others apart,
Can’t you see kindness is the true work of art?
Chorus
Don’t tell me I don’t have a sense of humor,
Just ‘cause I won’t dance to your tune of a rumor.
Your wit is not clever; it’s just a hot mess,
I’m looking for laughter that uplifts and does not oppress.
Don’t tell me I don’t have a sense of humor,
Just ‘cause I won’t dance to your tune of a rumor.
