• Joking

You said the world was magic,
I was wide-eyed and laughing,
we were dancing up to the bright side.
"Forget about your ego, forget about your pride,
and you will never have to compromise."
But you were only joking.
You were only joking, brother...

We talked about our mothers
kissing wounds of our fathers,
I could've been your sister.
I would've been your brother.
You kissed me like I was a soldier
heading for war,
I'm a dying man, but I don't know what for...
And you were only joking.
You were only joking brother.

Gravel and glass on the bottom of my feet,
I bruised my heels on a swollen street,
We were girls in bars, boys on the town,
Bumping like a pinball off a careless crowd.

You said "good friends are hard to come by"
I laughed and bought you a beer,
'cause it's too corny to cry.
Well sentiment given, or sentiment lost,
You shook it off with a smirk and a toss...

And you were only joking.
You were only joking, brother.
