#shit friends say that makes no sense at all
We laugh
at least you do
I watch you laughing
thinking the joke wasn't really that funny
at least to me
But maybe that's the punchline
I know to you this all makes sense
But that's a different punchline isn't it
for another joke I've never heard
or just don't find funny
maybe this just lacks context, don't you think
even the slightest sense of reality
But the gap between where I stand and where you do is only getting wider
we're drifting, but not together
You keep punching holes in your boat
like bad jokes
asking where the waters come from as you sink
lower
lower
lower
I think its time I untied you from my life (preserver)
less you climb aboard when your boat sinks
Bad jokes and all
no punchline here
Just you and I, not making any sense at all
at least you do
I watch you laughing
thinking the joke wasn't really that funny
at least to me
But maybe that's the punchline
I know to you this all makes sense
But that's a different punchline isn't it
for another joke I've never heard
