SMILE (Faded Grin)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Yeah, I'm walkin' in the crowd, but I feel so alone Fake smile on my face, like I'm chillin' at home Got these voices in my head, they won't leave me be Sayin' "just look happy, boy, it's all just a dream." [Pre-Chorus] Tryna keep it together, but I'm fallin' apart Playin' all my cards, but I'm losing my heart Yeah, they think I'm good, but they don't see the pain Dancin' in the rain, but I'm lost in the fame [Chorus] So I wear this faded grin, tryna hide what's within Laughin' with my friends, but it's feelin' like pretend Every night I fight, but I'm lost in the light Fake it 'til I make it, but I'm breakin' inside [Verse 2] Scrolling through my phone, but it's feelin' so dead All these filtered moments, but it's messin' with my head Caught up in the hype, yeah, it's hard to breathe Tryin' to keep it real, but I can't find relief [Pre-Chorus] Searchin' for a feeling, but it's hard to define Swappin' pain for laughter, yeah, I'm livin' the line Yeah, they think I'm good, but they don't see the scars Smilin' for the camera, but I'm lost in the stars [Chorus] So I wear this faded grin, tryna hide what's within Laughin' with my friends, but it's feelin' like pretend Every night I fight, but I'm lost in the light Fake it 'til I make it, but I'm breakin' inside [Bridge] Maybe one day I'll find a way to feel Put the mask down and show what's really real Hidin' in the shadows, but I wanna come alive Just need someone to tell me that it's okay to cry [Chorus] So I wear this faded grin, tryna hide what's within Laughin' with my friends, but it's feelin' like pretend Every night I fight, but I'm lost in the light Fake it 'til I make it, but I'm breakin' inside [Outro] Faded grin, yeah, it's all I've ever known But I'm tryna find the light, maybe bring it back home Wanna tear down the walls, let the real me show 'Til then, I'll wear this smile, even if it's just for show
