Smile
2019
Are you safe in there?
Shooting every false hope down?
So you're pretty sure that you're on solid ground now
So far beyond repair
When there's break in the entropy
And that lasting light is all I see
That isn't you, I don't believe
They don't want you feeling bold
That's the first thing you need to make a brighter day
And then once the dream is sold
You're afraid they'll have you crawling on your knees
Why does it always have to be that way?
(I just want you to... can you still smile?)
Yes I can hear you
No I don't think you're wrong
I want to see you shine your brightest
I want to see you standing strong
And yes I can feel the poison
Don't let it take over you love
You're not who you used to be love
So comfortable in your sadness
Wearing your fear with pride
Who do you think you're fooling
You have to find some way
To take back your mind
Didn't say it was easy
Didn't say you had no right
I don't want you to give up baby
And I know it's not warm at night
I don't want you to calm down
But it seems you forget what you're fighting for
Do you think things will ever get better?
Or is that what you want anymore?
Isn't that what you want anymore?
Can you still smile?
