Heard you today, that isn't my name, you were fast asleep,
Forget what he did, can I be the kid for your soul to keep
Some of us laugh, some of us cry,
Some of us smoke, some of us lie,
But it's all just the way that we cope with our lives

I've grown to see the philosophy of my own mistrust,
We all have our faults, mine come in waves that you turn to rust,
Some of us laugh, some of us cry,
Some of us smoke, some of us lie,
But it's all just the way that we cope with our lives

I've been hanging onto something,
You keep laughing awe-inspiring

Some of us laugh, some of us cry,
Some of us smoke, some of us lie,
But it's all just the way that we cope with our lives
Some of us laugh, some of us cry,
Some of us smoke, some of us lie,
But it's all just the way that we cope with our lives

My wandering soul found solace at last,
I wanted to know how long it would last
She's losing control, she's coming down fast,
The heart that I stole, I'm not giving back, never giving back
