The Last Laugh
Cronic Disorder Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Head first, face down, tunnel vision
Stopping to think, bad decision
Strung along and led to slaughter
Cross the line beyond the border
Sacrifice, the one and only way
to get anything of worth this life

First mistake
Bound to break
I will have
The last laugh

Trip and fall flat, drastic measures
Tragic comedy of errors
Force fed mindset, feeding frenzy
One last insult to injury
Through clenched teeth behind an evil grin
Looks like the jokes on you again

First mistake
Bound to break
I will have
The last laugh

Speak in circles, silent treatment
Sense of unrest, primed and hell-bent
Without any sign of warning
A ray of light in a time of mourning
So much for what might have been
Could it ever be the same again?

First mistake
Bound to break
I will have
The last laugh

Descending down
Pulling you under
Force a smile
that's as fake as your pathetic life
And the fact that I'm real is what kills you

I'm as real as the pain that rings inside your head
I'm as real as the pleasure that your pain brings
I'm as real as your anger bottled up inside




I'm as real as the last laugh that you'll ever hear
The last laugh
