Slapstick Heart Lyrics - Sam Phillips

Painted smile, but I don't feel the part 

In dream I hold your knife over my heart 

The edge is higher the closer I get 

When I jump you move the net 

I keep falling for this slapstick heart 

Hanging on your words, I thought I'd known 

The rope is cut and I'm falling on my own 

The comedy in the tragic disbelief 

Of only human 

To make you laugh, is there nothing I won't do 

Any pain I won't go through 

Lost my balance, fell like rain 

I half expected you to do the same
