Ts never really good enough When are you gonna give it your all Frustrated and I cant concentrate Im dragging around all this weight, all this weight But Ive heard laughter in the distance So strange and far away Ive heard laugher in the distance So very strange and far away Im trying to keep a tender heart and be headstrong Im trying to keep my faith this is where I belong The hours go by me like the breath I breathe No closer in the world to where I need to be but maybe to me But Ive heard laughter in the distance So strange and far away Ive heard laugher in the distance So very strange and far away But Ive seen the way people push and shove to get ahead of me Do I just sit back I don't think their world is where I want to be There never any guarantees for those people who are free Its hard to get by and it hurts to have dreams Feels like Im losing pieces of me, can anyone see me The hours go be me like the breath I breathe No closer in the world to where I need to be but maybe to me But Ive heard laughter in the distance So strange and far away Ive heard laugher in the distance So very strange and far away
