Story behind the song
The song is actually about 3 different things that when meshed together are almost coherent enough to understand... The attempted suicide of a friend & the break-up of my second marriage & the internalizing of both in verse 3 make up one of the cd's best tracks...
Lyrics
He only laughs all the time He only smiles in his mind And all the jokes are just a front For all he's hiding from Chorus: Can you hide lonely behind crazy Can you hide sad behind insane Can hide the frown behind a smile Hide your tears in the summer rain He only cries on the inside He only lives in her eyes He only dies a little everyday As he watches her fade away Repeat Chorus: The only thing he's ever wanted Is the very thing he can not have And as he puts the gun to his head He begins to laugh Repeat Chorus:
