The funny thing about waking up alone, is that there's more than just a lack of heat that's got you feelin' cold. Funny how you said you'd be here, and now you're not around. Funny how I searched that whole damn town, you were nowhere to be found. And how the funniest thing around me now are the tears of a clown. Kinda funny how no ones laughing now....(cause baby)
I know, you know, you always wanted something great and
I know, you know, that something isn't me and well-
Look how you made a fool of me.
But why settle for something less if you could always have the best?
You made a fool of me.
I guess that I failed your test and this is how it's gotta be,
You made a fool of me.
The funny thing about running from yourself;
is you can change your face an' rearrange your place.
But you can't be someone else.
I said there's a, a funny thing about running from yourself.
Its that eventually you're gonna catch yah,
and you might not like what's left.
I've found the funniest thing about being alone is that sometimes it hurts like hell.
And the one last thing that's got me laughing is that I do it to myself.
(And even though)
I know, you know, you always wanted something great now
I know, you know, it's something I can't be and well-
Look how you made a fool of me.
But why settle for something less if you could always have the best?
You made a fool of me.
I guess that I failed your test and this is how it's gotta be,
You made a fool of me.
And if your home is where your heart is, then I've been feeling heartless for almost sixteen months.
I've watched the black heart in my chest rot, so baby take your best shot. There's nothing left to hit.
But I should have known better...
I guess I could have known better, than this...(so baby)
Do me a favor? Don't talk to me, for a while. Just for a while.
And do me a favor; get away. Just get away from me.
Do me a favor; don't forget. I'm on my knees and it's my last request ohh
I know, you know, you always wanted something great and,
And now I see, why we could never be and well-
...
A fool of me.
But why settle for something less if you could always have the best?
You made a fool of me.
I guess that I failed your test and this is how it's gotta be,
You made a fool of me.
