The Joke and the Punchline
You can't grow without it aching
You can't build without breaking things
You can't learn without making mistakes
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
I am the joke and the punchline
The regret and hope that lingers after the dream
I am the voice that says there's plenty of time
Up until the closing scene
Still unclear of where I've been
I hear your call inconsolable child
Yet I have little comfort to give, to give
Like you I ache from promise unrealised
Filled with songs yet unsung
Filled with songs yet unsung
You can't grow without it aching
You can't build without breaking things
You can't learn without making mistakes
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
You can't grow without it aching
You can't build without breaking things
You can't learn without making mistakes
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
You can't build without breaking things
You can't learn without making mistakes
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
I am the joke and the punchline
The regret and hope that lingers after the dream
I am the voice that says there's plenty of time
Up until the closing scene
Still unclear of where I've been
I hear your call inconsolable child
Yet I have little comfort to give, to give
Like you I ache from promise unrealised
Filled with songs yet unsung
Filled with songs yet unsung
You can't grow without it aching
You can't build without breaking things
You can't learn without making mistakes
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
You can't grow without it aching
You can't build without breaking things
You can't learn without making mistakes
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
You can't make peace with shame unless you take the blame
