I Laugh So Hard I Forget To Cry

With everything I’ve been through
With every broken heart, promise, smile
With every lost love, friend, memory
I try to push it back
Hide it all behind my laughter

When he broke our family
And you stayed with him
I hate you mom, I hate you dad
But yet we stand smiling in our family portrait
Hide it all behind our laughter

When he crushed my heart
Lied to me, promised he’d stay with me
But ran away only a few days later to be with you
“Yeah, Shelbs, we’ll still be friends” (traitor)
Hide it all behind our laughter

When you left us
Crashed your jeep into that tree
We always told you to wear your seatbelt
Now we can only remember the good times
Hide it all behind our laughter

No one ever asks me, though
No one notices me as cry into my pillow
No one tells me that everything is gonna be alright
No one has to, because I
Hide it all behind my laughter
