Punch Line Loser

I saw you catch my laugh as I was slipping out the back
There's nothing quite so funny as a hostile second coming
There's nothing quite as charming as the wreckage of the wily
They see the world through pipe bombs
And another bloodied sapper
There's nothing quite as ugly as the confidence of cowards
We waste time by the hours marking off our scorecards
There's nothing quite as ugly as a world as small as ours

I hear I made you crack as I was trying out my wit
There's nothing so pathetic as the way I blow a punch line

Laugh at me all you want

I kept the shape your hair made as you slept against the window
The world goes by and rushes
The dashboard lights grow dimmer
There's nothing quite as lovely as a time as weird as ours
I watched your back as you were headed towards the bar
There's nothing quite so stunning
