Smile Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Can't catch a break, can't hold this weight
Wear me out, tear me down, I'll tell you, "I'm fine" (I'll tell you, "I'm fine")
It's getting rough, I've finally had enough
To the point I'm feeling like it'll eat me alive (It'll eat me alive)
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's go (Let's go)
Do they even know? (Do they even know?)
You're giving your time up for them (You're giving your time up for them)
You're giving your life up for them (You're giving your life up for them)
[Chorus]
Let's go! (Lеt's go!)
Go on and put on a show! (Show!)
Just faking a smile for them
Just faking a smile for thеm
[Post-Chorus]
Smile, just bear it for a while
Smile (Smile), just bear it for a while
[Verse 2]
You ask for more, but you make a mess (Make a mess)
I don't need you to add on to all of my stress (All of my stress) (This is all of my stress)
Waste my time (My time), just get in line (Get in line)
With everyone who thinks it's fun to cry and whine (To cry and whine)
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's go (Let's go)
Do they even know? (Do they even know?)
You're giving your time up for them (You're giving your time up for them)
You're giving your life up for them (You're giving your life up for them)
[Chorus]
Let's go! (Let's go!)
Go on and put on a show! (Show!)
Just faking a smile for them
Just faking a smile for them (Just faking a smile for them)
[Bridge]
Light a fire
Light a fire underneath me (Light a fire underneath me)
Oh, light a fire
Light a fire underneath me (Light a fire underneath me)
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's go (Let's go)
Do they even know? (Do they even know?)
You're giving your time up for them (You're giving your time up for them)
You're giving your life up for them (You're giving your life up for them)
[Chorus]
Let's go! (Let's go!)
Go on and put on a show! (Show!)
Just faking a smile for them (Just faking a smile for them)
Just faking a smile for them (Just faking a smile for them)
[Post-Chorus]
Smile (Smile), just bear it for a while (For a while)
Smile (Smile) (Just faking a smile), just bear it for a while (For a while)
