Best People Die Laughing by InaruisSignal88 - Zona

Lyrics

[Intro – Twinkly, eerie carousel keys]

🎠

My friends don’t walk — they run,

Skinny-dip in chaos just for fun

Pop balloons with silver guns

Laughing as the world comes undone

⸻

[Verse 1 – Playful but demented tone, upbeat tempo]

It’s not easy having class and charm

While greasing palms and twisting arms

They kiss you sweet, then twist the knife

I like the taste — it brings me to life

Smells like secrets, rotting gold

Curled-up sins in stories old

I’m not a villain, just misaligned

With a heart embalmed and a fractured mind

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – Whispered, then escalating to a smirk]

Peeling the skin off my face

’Cause I really hate being safe

They call me crazy, mad, insane

But tell me, love — aren’t we the same?

⸻

[Chorus – Big, theatrical, with layered voices]

🎭

I can’t decide if you should laugh or cry

Spoon-feed you sweets or watch you die

Don’t hang your head — we’re all deranged

The best people are a bit estranged

So lock the doors and kill the lights

We’re going dancing through the night

No one’s normal — and that’s divine

The best people die laughing every time

⸻

[Verse 2 – Sassy and sinister]

Doctor, doctor, give me lies

I color code my alibis

Grease-stained lips and rabbit holes

Spill secrets from your sugar bowl

All the best wear madness well

We smile sweet on carousels

You think I’m off my rocker? Sure.

I burned the couch, now I want more

⸻

[Bridge – Haunting music-box melody, low vocals then rising]

🎵

I could throw you in a lake

Or feed you poisoned frosted cake

(I won’t deny I’ll miss your face…)

But darling, I’ve prepared your grave

I wear my scars like perfume now

A blend of gunpowder and vows

So tell the shrink I’m unrefined—

Just blame it on my Valentine

⸻

[Final Chorus – Choir of chaos, explosive sound, ends abruptly with a laugh]

I can’t decide if you should live or burn

Kiss me slow or never return

You say I’m psycho — yeah, that’s right

I tuck you in and say goodnight

So lock the doors and dim the moon

The circus plays its final tune

The best people die laughing, dear

And I’m the ringmaster of your fear

🎪 Honk honk… bye-bye, darling.

⸻

[Outro – Twinkling lullaby keys fade, last line whispered:]

All the best people are crazy…

And I think you’re one of us.
