Why so Serious

[Verse 1]
To be or not to be
You toss that line like a joke at me
Card in your hand
Coin in the air
You call it fate
I call it fear
You wear that deep darkened smile
Like warpaint stretched a country mile
Are you the hero
Or the trial
You just shrug
And say “meanwhile”
[Chorus]
Why so serious
While you’re burning up the room like this
With that deep darkened smile on your lips
Like you’re laughing at the edge of it all
Why so serious
Heartbeats running with the risk
You say “life’s a loaded trick”
Then you grin like we’re about to fall
(about to fall)
With your deep darkened smile
[Verse 2]
Flip the script in a single breath
Turn every promise to a Russian roulette
You dance on cracks
In the concrete floor
Say “if it breaks
We’ll make a door”
You call it comedy
I call it almost tragedy
But when you look
Right back through me
I feel the pull
Of your gravity
[Chorus]
Why so serious
While you’re burning up the room like this
With that deep darkened smile on your lips
Like you’re laughing at the edge of it all
Why so serious
Heartbeats running with the risk
You say “life’s a loaded trick”
Then you grin like we’re about to fall
(about to fall)
With your deep darkened smile
[Bridge]
Are we alive
Or just rehearsing
Every line
For one last curtain
You just laugh
Say “watch me turn it”
Then you kiss me
Like it’s certain
[Chorus]
Why so serious
While you’re burning up the room like this
With that deep darkened smile on your lips
Like you’re laughing at the edge of it all
Why so serious
Heartbeats running with the risk
You say “life’s a loaded trick”
Then you grin like we’re about to fall
(about to fall)
With your deep darkened smile
