Joke or a Lie

What should I do? I am lost.
Tell me to leave the next time I'm in front of you I can't relate
Chip on your shoulder
How do you deal with that weight?
My hands are getting tired.

Call it a joke or a lie. Call it a joke or a lie.
Put your coat on, then believe me, I try.

Let us escape for a night.
Breathe the silence.
I am alone,
But I am alone in this room with you.

Call it a joke or a lie, call it a joke or a lie.
Put your coat on, then believe me, I tried.
