[Verse 1] "I'm good, thanks for asking" Anxiety in my chest But inside I keep on crashing Feeling so damn pressed Dear lord I can't wake up So I paint it on like morning makeup Smile through gritted teeth, forgetting how to breathe [Pre-Chorus] Can't let the cracks show through For the show that I put on Act like the pain's not true Don't let them know I'm gone [Chorus] Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Everything's perfect, nothing's the matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Hide all the pieces, nothing can shatter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera I'm falling apart but it doesn't matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera [Verse 2] "What's got you so excited?" Nothing sparks inside me now But I mirror what's delighted Fake enthusiasm somehow Colors bleeding into gray Joy feels foreign on my tongue So I borrow what they say Pretend I'm forever young [Pre-Chorus] Can't let the cracks show through For the show that I put on Act like the pain's not true Don't let them know I'm gone [Chorus] Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Everything's perfect, nothing's the matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Hide all the pieces, nothing can shatter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera I'm falling apart but it doesn't matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera [Breakdown] I'm not okay I'm not okay I'm not okay I'm not okay I'm drowning and I'm fading away But I'll smile anyway I'm not okay I'm not okay [Chorus] Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Everything's perfect, nothing's the matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Hide all the pieces, nothing can shatter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera I'm falling apart but it doesn't matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera [Outro] Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Everything's perfect, nothing's the matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera Hide all the pieces, nothing can shatter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera I'm falling apart but it doesn't matter Smile for the camera, smile for the camera
