Laugh Before You Grin
Lydia Lyrics

Begging for your hand,
I am pleading for you to come with me and take my hand.

Screaming at your face
I am shouting at you because I want you to listen to what I have to say.

Come with me here
Join me in this place, away from our troubles.

We'll leave this place
Together, we will depart from this area and start anew.

I'm all yours because I hate this house
I belong to you because I despise this household.

And how sad it makes you
It upsets you greatly as well.

In the morning
When the sun rises.

That I'm hoping never comes
I long for this specific morning to never arrive.

I just want to watch the sky and some
All I desire to do is view the sky and its components.

Stars are out I do believe
I think that the stars are visible tonight.

Cause this winter came,
Due to the arrival of winter,

I think we made it through the freeze
I believe we survived the harsh winter.

Someday we'll drive
One day we will travel by car

Away
Far from here.

And cut up my face
We will alter my face to make it look different

Because it's too plain
Since my face is too straightforward and uninteresting.

You are this..
You are responsible for doing this to my face.

I swear it's this town I'll never see
I firmly declare that I will never return to this town again.

Again if
Once more if

I have my way in time
If things go according to plan as time passes.

Just to see, see, see
Just to witness, witness, witness

Ha ha, ha, ha ha
I am amused and laughing.

I tricked you again
I fooled you once more.

Anything but silence
Speak your mind instead of remaining silent.

Anything you say
Whatever you say.

Will stay in my head for days, and days
Your words will linger in my mind for a long period of time.

And I'm sorry we couldn't make it back this evening
I apologize for not being able to return home tonight.

But I'm still hoping
However, I am still optimistic

We have to move or so it seems
We appear to be required to relocate.

I guess the hospitals are near
I presume that the hospitals are nearby.

Cause I can hear those
Because I am able to hear those hospital sounds.

Screams
Screaming sounds.

And your breathing over me
I can sense you inhaling and exhaling on me.

Well ha ha, ha
Well, haha

Because you are nothing
You represent nothing

But I promise
But I guarantee

Oh, it's here
It is present and real now.

In your expensive taste
Demonstrated by your pricey preferences.

We should have framed this place
We ought to have put this place in a frame.

And kept it on your shelf
And placed it on your shelf.

Next to your big city dreams
Adjacent to your grand urban aspirations.

It's in your touch it seems
It appears to be in the way that you touch objects.

And you wear that on your sleeve
And you show that side of yourself to everyone.

And all those thoughts
And all those thoughts that

That make you bleed
That harm or hurt your emotions.

Oh just to see, see, see
Oh, just to look, look, look.

So go ahead kid,
So go ahead young person,

We loved it
We adored it.

Sing it loud before the light hits
Sing it with enthusiasm before the sun comes up.

And we are forced to move
Before we must leave this area.

With the windows up we can keep the light out
Shutting the windows keeps the light outside away from us.

You can keep the light out
You are able to prevent the light from entering our surroundings.
