Got nothin to write 

just tryin to liven up this day 

been servin my time 

and starting to wisen up to my mistake 

with chains and bars around me, he goes free out there 

it's so funny, I'm not laughing anymore 

It's so funny, I'm not laughing, I'm not laughing anymore 

been workin the line 

must've ironed ninety shirts today 

my hands are on fire 

small price to pay for taking a man's life away 

He used to write and tell me how he'd wait for me 

it's so funny, I'm not laughing anymore 

It's so funny, I'm not laughing, I'm not laughing anymore 

Told me I was special 

made me feel like I was someone 

anything to please him 

anything to keep him 

that's why I'm here and he's gone 

missed having a child 

I'm spending my life in hell's hotel 

been talking to God 

and healing this gaping hole I call my soul 

it's so funny, I'm not laughing, I'm not laughing anymore
