[Instrumental Solo Intro] [Verse 1] You tilt your head like you’re concerned Then change the subject, lesson learned Words drip slow, like easy lies Like you’re surprised when I don’t smile You like me quiet, soft, and small Not angry, loud, or real at all You sip your coffee, tap your phone While I collapse, alone [Instrumental Solo] [Pre-Chorus] You say it’s not that deep Like I should laugh instead of weep [Chorus] Smile, sunshine don’t you cry You're too young to look so tired Don’t forget you’re someone's dream Even when you want to scream Smile, sunshine, show your teeth Bite it down and hide the grief Fake it good and fake it right Smile, sunshine yeah, that's life [Verse 2] You talk like pain is just a phase Like I can cry it out in waves But I’ve been drowning, sinking in While you applaud the state I’m in You call me “strong” when I don’t speak Ignore the cracks beneath my feet I learned to smile through shattered glass And nod like this will pass [Instrumental Solo] [Pre-Chorus] You say I’m lucky Like that should make it easy [Chorus] Smile, sunshine don’t you cry You're too young to look so tired Don’t forget you’re someone's dream Even when you want to scream Smile, sunshine show your teeth Bite it down and hide the grief Fake it good and fake it right Smile, sunshine yeah, that's life [Bridge] You said I’d be beautiful If I just shut my mouth But silence never saved me And I’m done sitting down Keep your comfort, keep your grace I’ll keep my anger in its place Smile, sunshine bite the pain Bleed a little, smile again [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] Smile, sunshine don’t you cry You're too young to look so tired Don’t forget you’re someone's dream Even when you want to scream Smile, sunshine show your teeth Bite it down and hide the grief Fake it good and fake it right Smile, sunshine yeah, that's life [Instrumental Solo]
