The Joke

And I can't even look at you
When you're on the run
So close to the boy you were
So far from the man I love
Am I the only one
Who's had enough
I just can't bear to lay my sword down

The cost of my freedom
The cost of my soul
Would it hurt so terribly
To let myself go?
But I can't do it alone

Am I the only one
Who won't raise a toast
Am I the only one
Who doesn't need a smoke
Am I the only one not in on the joke
I just can't bear to be out of control

At the cost of my freedom
The cost of my soul
Clarity when you need it
But none for the road
And I can't bear it alone

The cost of my freedom
The cost of my soul
If it's once will it change me
To someone I don't know
Or will it act alone?

Don't drink, don't smoke
What do you do?
