Smile, Wasteland Neighbor

[Intro]
(doo… doo…) (mm… ba-doo…)

The world looks so wide up close. (uhh)
Sunny. Sandy. Everything crunches.
My hamster squeaks gently.
The Geiger ticks back. (tick-tick)
I smooth my dress. (Old habits stay)
And keep walking. (mm-hm)

[Verse 1] 
You stand there wrapped in metal rules,
your helmet hums when you speak.
If your voice wasn’t sinking so low,
you’d sound almost… kind to me.

I tilt my head, try not to stare,
that filter makes you hard to read.
In the Vault, voices sounded clear,
people spoke without weapons raised.

You use old tech to hunt yesterday’s,
to keep it out of reach? - aha
I nod like that makes perfect sense,
and smile a little too direct.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Hey, didn't they teach you this at all? (uhh)
Just a simple golden rule?
What you don't want done to you -
maybe don't begin
with force. (mm)

[Chorus 1]
So smile, wasteland neighbor, smile,
even after bombs and fire.
Kindness is still the rule,
that's what I'm trying to do.

You don't have to hurt me, friend,
I've got arms instead of ammo.
Whatever you decide to do -
I'll still stand here anyway.

[Verse 2] 
Go on, put the blade down, dear,
I promise — I come in kind.
I mean it — I don’t bite,
even if I’m shaking... (damn… you’re scary)

You laugh like it’s a bad joke,
no nose, just scars and certainty,
you’ve already made your choice.
(can we still be friends?)

You step too close, I don’t step back,
my heart beats loud, but slow.
I keep my voice friendly, like time still works,
like mercy’s something you might know.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Hey, didn’t they teach you this in school? (uhh)
Somewhere before the world went wrong?
What you don’t want done to you 
maybe don’t do it
with a knife. (mm-hm)

[Chorus 2]
So smile, wasteland neighbor, smile,
the sun still knows your name.
Kindness is still the rule,
even in this kind of game.

Put the knife away, my friend,
I don’t need to win or prove.
You can scare me if you want 
I’ll still say please,
and thank you.

[Build]
Still walking. Still here.
Still kind, still fear.

Heart keeps time,
won’t speed up.
Hands stay open,
don’t give up.

Not a win. Not brave.
Just the way I behave.

[Bridge]
You blink at me, my little friend,
I know you miss the way it was.
Yeah, it’s not the same out here,
and I’m not sure what I expected.

Down there the lights never flickered,
the things here glow on their own. (radioactive, honest about it)
We don’t have jello anymore,
but look — sand for everyone.

Out here the flames dance with the stars,
sure, it could draw monsters close —
keeps us awake, beats getting bored.

No bedtime bell, no numbers on walls,
no one telling us when to stop.
Here the sky just keeps going.

Can you feel this, Bruno?
Sun on your whiskers,
wind that doesn’t belong to anyone.

Yeah… less cozy
But wider...

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Hey… you would like that for us too. (uhh)
I can see it in your face.
So maybe — let’s try a different start 
just one small step outside our place.

[Final Chorus]
So smile, my tiny wasteland neighbor, smile,
even if the ground feels new.
Kindness is still the rule,
that’s what I choose to do.

We don’t have to win, my friend,
we don’t need to prove a thing.
Just walk with me a little while,
see what this wide world brings.

[Outro]
Yeah… it’s less cozy,
but look how far we see.
Hold on tight, my wasteland neighbor 
stay out here with me.
