Smile and Pretend

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I believe I've changed And I know 'cause it's clear And as I walk the streets alone I say, "Boy, you ain't got nothing to fear" [Pre-Chorus] Settle down, make it right We ain't gonna change this overnight [Chorus] One day you, you will be The eyes with which I see The ears with which I hear The tongue with which I speak You will be The hand with which I strike Then I'll leave this world behind [Post-Chorus] Da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da Da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da [Verse 2] Everywhere I see All these people pushing me, oh And all this pressure to retreat So I got to hold on to what I believe [Pre-Chorus] Settle down, make it right We ain't gonna change this overnight [Chorus] One day you, you will be The eyes with which I see The ears with which I hear The lungs with which I breathe You will be The hand with which I strike Then I'll leave this world behind [Post-Chorus] Da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da Da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da [Bridge] So are you looking out for me, my friend?
