I wish I were funny.
Wish I could make you hahaha right off into dreamless sleep.
Wish I could make you hahaha right off into a life in which I didn't exist.

I wish I were funny.
Wish I could make you hahaha yourself into forgetting about me.
Wish I could make you hahaha yourself into finding peace.

But I was born too sad to be funny.
I believed the sadness was my fault and then I believed it was yours.
But I don't think there is anyone to blame.
The sadness is just in our blood.

I hope,
when the day comes,
the sadness will die with me.

I hope,
if she ever finds her way
into this world,
my daughter
will be funny.
