The Joke Explained Lyrics

I never held your gaze
I never know my place
Ah I stare at the eyes staring at my face
It always ends in a tie
There is no meeting the divine
I cry at the joke explained
Ah but if I had known
If I had known
If I had known
I would've never believed

I'll never smoke my chain
Whoever measures the crack
Ah they can have my broken chest
It's a staring contest
In a hall of beers
I swim tears
But I
Don't ever cry
Ah if I had known
If I had known
If I had known
I would've never, believed

I never know how to tie a noose
My pair of parished in the pews
I climbed back into the yoke
It always ends in a tie
There is no getting the divine
I cry at the joke explained
Ah If I had known
If I had known
If I had known
I would've never believed
I would've never believed
I would've never believed
