Only Hurts When I Laugh lyrics

My mind works all the time is that why your afraid of me
Or is it my tattoo's you can't help but to see
They say that I am complex Don't believe everything I read
And sometimes it is hard to explain all that I have seen
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/bride/only_hurts_when_i_laugh.html ]
I don't smile for pictures, my success is overdone
God watches over me I am the fortunate one
Give me wings of angels Rise above self righteousness
There is only so much of this world my soul can digest

Chorus

It only hurts when I laugh

You can look a man dead in the eye
See deep within his soul
You can walk a mile in his shoes
And never know all he knows

Verse

My songs aren't always perfect cause the truth it sometimes hurts And even though it is painful, you know all the words I've learned to shut the world out and to let the spirit in It's only when I'm honest that miracles begin
