The Faint - Life’s a Joke Lyrics

You want more love
You want more life
You want validation
You want to make things right
You want success
You want to be a big star
You want to stack that money
You want some of that power

You want to be brave
But you want to live long
You want to be guiltless
When it's all your fault
You want to be awakened
But you want more sleep
You want more passion
But you need relief

With nothing to prove
No one to please
Nothing to hide
No one to be

You'll say what you will
Life's a joke
It's a game of luck
Then time's up

You want to be real
You want to be raw
You want to feel needed
Flaws and all
You want to know yourself
You want to clear head
But you want to get fucked up
And you want respect

You want to fit in
But you want to stand out
You want to trust your body
But you're best without
You want to find your purpose
And know you're right
You want to be a good story
It could end tonight

With nothing to prove
No one to please
Nothing to hide
No one to be

You say what you do
Life's a joke
It's a game of luck
Then time's up

With nothing to prove
No one to please
Nothing to hide
No one to be

You say what you do
Life's a joke
It's a game of luck
Then time's up
