Sam Collie - Fake Smiles Lyrics

[Verse 1]So caught up on todayI forgot three hundred sixty-four remainAnd if water composes three quarters of my brainWhat is left of these tears that fall to the earth like rain[Chorus]Oh can’t you see this weight is far too much for meAnd it shows, woe is me in this world inside my phoneLet me go, and you’ll see all that we could beLord knows it’s not easy to pretend that we’re happy[Verse 2]Got addicted to the painAnd those withdrawals clung to my body like ketchup stainsAnd if a car swerved directly into my laneWould I turn or succumb to this pressure inside my veins[Chorus]Oh can’t you see this weight is far too much for meAnd it shows, woe is me in this world inside my phoneLet me go, and you’ll see all that we could beLord knows it’s not easy to pretend that we’re happy[Bridge]So paint this smile upon my faceThe only thing that keeps me saneI know that love is prone to changeAnd hopes we had were all in vainPaint this smile upon my faceThe only thing that keeps me saneI know that love is prone to changeAnd hopes we had were all in vain[Chorus]Oh can’t you see this weight is far too much for meAnd it shows, woe is me in this world inside my phoneLet me go, and you’ll see all that we could beLord knows it’s not easy to pretend that we’re happy
