Only Hurts When I Laugh

My mind works all the time, is that why you're afraid of me ?

Or is it my tattoos that you can't help but to see ?

Say that I am complex, don't believe everything I read

And sometimes it is so hard to explain all the things that I have seen

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

I don't smile for pictures, my success is overdone

God watches over me,you know, I'm the fortunate one

Give me wings of angels, rise above self righteousness

There's only so much of this ol' world my soul can digest

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

Look a man dead in the eye, see deep within his soul

Walk a mile in his shoes, you'll never know all he knows, knows

Songs aren't always pretty cause the truth, it sometimes hurts

And even though it's painful you know all the words

I've learned to shut the world out and to let the Spirit in

It's only when I'm honest that miracles begin

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

Only hurts when I laugh

Only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh

It only hurts when I laugh
