i can laugh at this dream    and if i drown i'll wake in the morning    this is liquid love in a plastic cup    and if it leaks we can plug it right back up   pain is a rain that washes away   i'm a fabric you can't stain    to make light of you is all that i have   so understand me if i laugh   you were sleeping    and your eyes they were gone for a while    you were screaming    and i searched for the lines of your smile   this is peace and i know 'cause i'm too tired to cry    i'll never get close to you and i'm just too distracted to try   pain is a rain that washes away    i'm a fabric you can't stain   to fall into this is not what i want    so understand me if i don't    love is a glove that just doesn't fit    no matter how you pull at it    to make light of you    is all that i have    so understand me if i laugh    it is late i won't ask you to stay or to stroke   i have never gotten warm from you huddling close   if you danced i might take you right up in my arms   but you don't    so i whisper this is all    this is all all
