lyrics
awkward laughter
is that all we have to share
all that we dare?
awkward laughter
fills in an empty space
it's there on your face
unnerved, distressed, unsettled and all the rest
perturbed, shook up, unravelled and under stress
and the more and more you know
the strain tightens and cracks show
and the more and more you think
the will crumbles and the spirits sink
and the more and more you wish
the farther away your dreams are pushed
awkward laughter
comes in a sudden burst
we just make things worse
and now that we have found
we’re standing on shifting ground
we are left
with only the fading sound
of awkward laughter
(there are some things you just can't say
but everybody in his own way knew it!)
