New Years Day - The Joker lyrics

[Verse 1] The heart wants what the heart wants... When I'm standing on the edge, it's time to make a choice The most repulsive one of all is if I fall, it's all my fault The heart wants what the heart wants I know it isn't you Will you take this as a hint I won't take sh** from anyone You pushed too hard, took this too far Nothing's ever fair in love and war... Wipe that grin off your face [Chorus] You'll always be a joker to me Same old story, same routine Now that I've seen the tricks up your sleeve, I'm not one for make believe You use your illusions and hide what's inside Save it for someone who buys your love You'll always be a joker to me, but I'm not laughing anymore [Verse 2] Well, I can't say it's been a pleasure just a pain and quite a mess I'm no damsel in distress, a weight off my chest I can breathe without your hands around my neck You're mistaken if you ever think you'll make another fool out of me! How pathetic can you be? Smile at the crowd, take one last bow... The show's over! No one's laughing now... [Chorus] [Bridge] I've got a couple tricks of my own, a few I still haven't shown When I get you alone, now you see it now you don't! You've backed me in the corner for the last time I'm taking control (control) Standing at the edge with your life in my hands and I let you fall! [Chorus] [Outro] It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt...
