More Than Just The Laughter (Pomni's Reprise)

[Verse 1] I woke up in this office chair, I don’t know where or when I am Empty screens and hollow laughter, every joke just feels like sand I had friends but they glitched away, faded out like static snow Built these walls so high around me, scared to let my feelings show [Pre-Chorus] I got jokes and I do use them, hide my heart behind the grin Every punchline is my armor, every smirk a second skin Every scar’s a lesson learned, every bridge I watched it burn I’m more than all this danger… I say I am the danger [Chorus] But the circus lights keep spinning ‘round I’m the king of every clever sound If I laugh, I won’t fall apart So I lock the doors around my heart Every scar a secret I have earned Every bridge a place that’s never turned I’m more than all this danger I tell myself I’m the danger [Verse 2] I was there just killing time, fading in the neon glow Then you stumbled through the madness, colors bright like falling snow You said, “Hey, my name is Pomni, we could maybe both be friends” I rolled my eyes and kept on joking, but my mask began to bend [Pre-Chorus] I got jokes but I can’t use them when you’re looking back at me ‘Cause your smile feels like an answer to a fear I couldn’t see Every scar is my lesson learned, every truth I always spurned I’m more than just the danger… maybe I’m not the danger [Chorus] As the circus lights keep spinning ‘round You still stay and listen to my sound When I laugh, you hear the breaking parts You can see the cracks inside my heart Every scar, you trace it like it’s art Every bridge, you say we’ll make a start I’m more than all this danger Maybe I’m not the danger [Bridge] [Pomni (Female)] If you’re lost inside the coded night (yeah) I’ll be right beside you in the light (ooh) You don’t have to hide behind the show Let the real you slowly overflow [Jax (Male)] I’ve been frozen in this looping fear Thought that caring makes me disappear But you’re reaching through the glitch and glow Pulling me where I’m afraid to go [Duet] Every scar’s a story we can share (hey) Every bridge, we’ll cross it if we dare I’m more than jokes and quiet rage More than just this digital cage [Reprise Chorus] [Pomni (Female)] When the circus lights keep spinning ‘round I will catch you when you hit the ground Hear the truth beneath your practiced lines See the heart that hides between the signs [Jax (Male)] Every scar’s a lesson finally heard Every bridge is waiting, not yet burned I’m more than all this danger I’m learning I’m not the danger [Duet] Every glitch and fracture in your soul I will hold it ‘til you feel it whole We’re more than all this danger Together we’re not the danger [Outro] I woke up in this office chair, but now I know just where I am In this maze of neon laughter, holding onto your warm hand Every scar a lantern in the dark, every joke a softer spark We’re more than just the danger… We’re the hope inside the darkness.
