"Laugh It Off" lyrics

Is that steam that I can see coming out your ears?
I admit this time it was me who struck the chord
Pushed your buttons in that triggered your life before
I wish I was better at speaking your language
You understand me oh so well
We get tripped up by how I pronounce words
Watching my train run off its rails

Even with our voices so loud
We can't hear each other talk
No matter if it's real or ridiculous
We'll always laugh it off
Do you think the neighbors hear us?
Do you think they called the cops?
By the time they reached our front porch
We already laughed it off
We gotta laugh it off

And there's a book that I read all about self help
It tells me it's good to be alone sometimes
But can its pages teach me what I can learn from real life?
I wish you were patient in hearing me out
I don't make it easy, I can tell
I reach my point, then I say things backwards
You try not to laugh, 'cause you're mad as hell

Even with our voices so loud
We can't hear each other talk
No matter if it's real or ridiculous
We'll always laugh it off
Do you think the neighbors hear us?
Do you think they called the cops?
By the time they reached our front porch
We already laughed it off

Don't let regrets
Eat you alive 'cause in time they'll lead you to
Where your life's meant
To be, and when I look back now, I can see
All my mistakes led me closer and closer to you
The things I can't change led me closer and closer to you

Even with our voices so loud
We can't hear each other talk
No matter if it's real or ridiculous
We'll always laugh it off
Do you think the neighbors hear us?
Do you think they called the cops?
By the time they reached our front porch
We already laughed it off

We always laugh it off
We always laugh it off
No matter if it's real or ridiculous
We'll always laugh it off
