You seem to have a broader sensibility
Photo Beauty gets attention, then her eye paint's running down
Throwing the lightness on these things
And me in my frightened silence, thinking I don't understand
Saying, laughing and crying, you know it's the same release
One minute she's so happy, then she's crying on someone's knee
I wish I had more sense of humor, keeping the sadness at bay
I'm just living on nerves and feelings with a weak and a lazy mind
I told you when I met you I was crazy, cry for us all Beauty
I feel like I am sleeping, can you wake me?
Cry for Eddie in the corner, thinking he's nobody
Some are friendly, some are cutting, some are watching it from the wings
Laughing it all away, laughing it all away
Some are standing in the center, giving to get something
And coming to peoples parties fumbling deaf, dumb and blind
And Jack behind his joker and stone-cold Grace behind her fan
She's got a rose in her teeth and a lampshade crown
