 When you find  me in the morning
 Hanging on a warning
 Oh...  The joke is on you
 You said  you were pretending
 Here's to unhappy endings
 Oh...  The joke  is on you
 To make  sure yesterday doesn't repeat
 I took a shortcut home
 A left on the street
 I know  they won't  find me here
 I found  out how to make mama proud
 Be real quiet, don't talk too loud
 I  try, try  to disappear
 My life  is for the taking
  X
 Breakdown is awaking me
  Z
 I'm ending all this pain
 When you find  me in the morning
 Hanging on a warning
 Oh...  The joke is  on you
 You said  you were pretending
 Here's to unhappy endings
 Oh...  The joke is  on you
 This  is my last day
 Should have been my first kiss
 Think to myself will I ever be missed?
 I hope...  Or maybe  I don't care
 I wear  my T around my neck
 I love them so much
 Gonna love them to death
 Tonight...  I See the world  through my eyes
 My life  is for the taking
  X
 Breakdown is erasing me
  Z
 I'm ending all this pain
My  great escape
Is  my biggest mistake
I  think you better turn around
Don't  throw it away
 Today... Today...
 When you find  me in the morning
 Hanging on a warning
 Oh...  The joke is on you
 You said  you were pretending
 Here's to unhappy endings
 Oh...  The joke  is on you
The  joke is on you
The  joke is on you
The  joke is on you
The  joke is on you
