Inspired by Mark Hamil's Joker
Loosely based one line from the Killing Joke

Laughter is stock apple loops (I can't do the laugh, Will update file if I can pull it off.)
Yep the terrible Joker impersonation is me.

Lyrics

Life's a smooth old cruise for the average
Not single bump in the road
But when you are surrounded by enemies
It's a sensory overload

Just a symptom of lost humanity
We expect to be abused
They don't expect you to resort to insanity
when you got nothing left to lose

When it gets too much to take, you'll find
The emergency exit for the mind
With every mistake you gain a chance
Don’t fall behind

Madness, let it consume you
don't forget the alternative
option will bring you back the pain
Learn to take in the arrows
don't you waste all your energy
laugh it off and dance in the rain
they're not worth it anyway.

Life is much more fun when you’re crazy
letting nothing weigh you down
Even if your world turns to ashes
dust it off and wear your crown

Sanity is overrated
Why not make this pain a ride
Make your mask and diamond plate it
protecting what's inside

When it takes too much to find, you'll take
A chance to show them their mistake
When your mind is lost you’ll find you’re free
From what’s at stake

Madness, let it consume you
don't forget the alternative
option will bring you back the pain
Learn to take in the arrows
don't you waste all your energy
laugh it off and dance in the rain
they're not worth it anyway.

And though I try to lose myself
Pretend that I am insane
But through it all, I can’t erase
Who I really am inside

通訳

一般人なら人生は結構スムーズだ
道路上には隆起はない
でも敵に囲まれたら
感覚に負担を掛け過ぎる

人間の魂がが失った症状だ
乱用されるのは当たり前
だが、狂気になることに頼るなんて予期しない
失うものはもうなければ出来る

これ以上我慢できなければ、見つける
意識の非常口を
間違いをするたびにチャンスが当たる
後れをとるな

サビ:
マッドネスに消費されよ
それ以外の選択にすると苦しみが戻ってくる
忘れないで
矢を我慢して
力を無駄に使うな
そういうことの前に笑って雨の中で踊れ
あいつらはどうでもいいだ。

正気は過大評価
この痛みをライドにして楽しもう
マスクにダイヤモンドをかけて
中のものを守れ

我慢できるなら、取るんだ
あいつらの間違いを見せるチャンスを
正気を失うと自由だ
痛めるものより

自分を失おうとしても
狂気のマネをしようとしても
それでも本当の自分を
消すことはできない
