Funny how I didn’t sleep a wink
but had the worst nightmare.
Funny how I didn’t sleep a wink
but lived the worst nightmare.

It’s not funny at all how
my biggest fear is myself.
It’s not funny at all how
my worst enemy is myself.

Funny how awake one can feel
after a night’s worth of not sleeping.
Funny how awake one can feel
at four thirty in the morning.

It’s not funny at all how
out of control I am.
It’s not funny at all how
terribly scared I am.

Funny how well one can act
after years and years of practice.
Funny how well one can act
in times when the most important thing
is the truth.
