Laughter is a response to fear. And when you laugh, temporarily, you are relieved and unburdened of the knowledge of the inevitability of death. -Russell Brand

Strike 3

I'm scared to find out what I already know. 
Disguise the words so my sorrow won't show.
My ears aren't ready to bleed with realization
Of the fact that I yet again failed my soul from relaxation.
Keep the sting from ever reaching me.
I don't have enough blood to bleed you see. 
But not to worry,
even when you feed me what I already know
My mind will pretend that the words you crow
Never reached my cautious inner ego.
