I Laugh In The Face Of Death Lyrics

I was just a child
When I got this scar
And all the while
I was not prepared
For a world so cruel
I was so scared
It only got worse
Every day I lived
Felt like a curse
Then one day
I just broke
And in my despair
I made a joke
And I laughed
I laughed, I laughed

Ever since that day
Well I guess you can say
Iv'e been this way
And though I still get sad
As long as I can laugh
Its not that bad
When you learn to look your demons
In the eyes and smile
You'll find your deepest, darkest fears
Lose power for a while

And you'll laugh
You'll laugh
I laugh in the face of death
I laugh with my dying breath
I laugh when I oughta cry
I laugh when I wanna die
I laugh at funerals
And meanwhile, you are all
Thinking im a criminal
Cuz when I ought to cry I just laugh
Something gets strange
And even deranged
Laughing at the darkest things
Makes me feel okay
You should try it
You'll feel better that way

I laugh in the face of death
I laugh with my dying breath
I laugh when I oughta cry
I laugh when I wanna die
I laugh at funerals
And meanwhile, you are all
Thinking im a criminal
Cuz when I ought to cry
I just laugh

(What If you died?)
I'd just laugh!
(Or lose an eye?)
I'd just laugh!
(Or lose a leg?)
I'd get a peg
And rest it on a pirate's keg
(What if you drowned?)
I'd just laugh
(Or fall down?)
Well then you'd laugh
(A jester's crown is where you're bound)
I'd gladly be your clown
If you just laugh
Just laugh, Just laugh
