On the edges of the sharpest knives, in the middle of the darkest nights
Always knew that I would find you here, in the puddle of the bravest tears
I've seen enough to know it's lonely where you are
Above the crowd, feet dangling from a rooftop [A rooftop]
she waits from ledges for a voice to talk her down
And nothing matters but the pain when you're alone
The never-ending nights when you're awake
When you're praying that tomorrow it's okay
There will be a time to crack another smile
Maybe not today or for a while
But we're holding on to laugh again someday
To laugh again someday
All that matters is the time we had, doesn't matter how it all went bad
Never wonder what it might be like, shut the door, say goodbye
When faced with tragedy we come alive or come undone
So don't look back, let it shape you like an ocean
Even the deepest scars in time will fade
And nothing matters but the pain when you're alone
The never-ending nights when you're awake
When you're praying that tomorrow it's okay
There will be a time to crack another smile
Maybe not today or for a while
But we're holding on to laugh again someday
Yeah we're holding on to laugh again someday
And sometimes you have to go back to know just where you have been
But we're old enough to know that what has been will be again and again
And the bravest of faces are the ones where we fake it
in the roles that we play
Nothing matters when the pain is all but gone
When you are finally awake
Despite the overwhelming odds, tomorrow came
And when they see you crack a smile
and you decide to stay a while
You'll be ready then to laugh again
Nothing matters but the pain [We are tragedy, yeah we are sympathy]
Nothing matters but the pain [You see what you want to see]
Nothing matters but the pain [We are misery, and distant memories]
And nothing matters but the pain [But we all learn to laugh again]
Yeah we all learn to laugh again
Oh we all learn to laugh again
