laugh now cry later

learn to fly

i need the wings to try

i'm gonna touch the sky

there's more than meets the eye

now make-believe

working hard to achieve

sometimes it's tough to breathe

like salting the dead sea

i don't remember what i said last night

if it matter

you were probably right

we can go on like we pretend

we can go on until the end

did you earn the cry now laugh later crown?

of do you live in laugh now cry later town?

i'm happy if you cry now

i'm happy if you cried it out

but damn

this thing called life

i'm happy if you laugh now

i'm happy you laughed it out

but damn

this thing called life

like a game of chess

and you don't know the rules of chess

trying to dodge the mess

where do i confess?

i don't pretend

i know i'm hard to comprehend

well to eben understand

but i don't bail on friends

i don't remember what i said last night

if it matter

you were probably right

we can go on like we pretend

we can go on until the end

did you earn the cry now laugh later crown?

of do you live in laugh now cry later town?

i'm happy if you cry now

i'm happy if you cried it out

but damn

this thing called life

ooh

i'm happy if you laugh now

i'm happy you laughed it out

but damn

this thing called life

i don't remember what i said last night

if it matter

you were probably right

we can go on like we pretend

we can go on until the end

did you earn the cry now laugh later crown?

of do you live in laugh now cry later town?

i'm happy if you cry now

i'm happy if you cried it out

but damn

this thing called life

ooh

i'm happy if you laugh now

i'm happy you laughed it out

but damn

this thing called life
