Analysis of ♪ My Fake Smile (lyrics) ♫ ♪



Every morning I get up,
And put on the same old,
The same old smile.
And its not easy,
Not easy wearing it around,
'Cause it's always trying to turn around.
And even though
I have so many great friends
It seems
That no one will ever understand

Each mornin' I awake I smile,
But no one ever notices its a lie.
And while you smile back, laugh a lot,
I'm waiting to scream and cry!
I'm never quite understood
By all those I thought I knew.
And when you see me breakdown
You'll never get why...
But you'll never notice through
My fake smile...

I try to stay strong but
Sometimes I just gotta cry,
And you make look at me weird
But I really
I really don't care!
Let me cry, don't comfort me,
I know you don't
You don't care.
You were the ones who teased me in life,
I don't give a shit what you have to say.
And though I've been runnin' through life,
I may seem
I may seem perfectly fine!

Each mornin' I awake I smile,
But no one ever notices its a lie.
And while you smile back, laugh a lot,
I'm waiting to scream and cry!
I'm never quite understood
By all those I thought I knew.
And when you see me breakdown
You'll never get why...
But you'll never notice through
My fake smile...

Forgive me if I cannot find!
The words needed to be said!
I'm tryin' my best,
Tryin' my best!
But no one seems to care.
All I want is to live,
But I know these feelings will never be
Never be
Turned around!

Each mornin' I awake I smile,
But no one ever notices its a lie.
And while you smile back, laugh a lot,
I'm waiting to scream and cry!
I'm never quite understood
By all those I thought I knew.
And when you see me breakdown
You'll never get why...
But you'll never notice through
My fake smile...
My fake smile...
My fake smile...

I'm 13. I love Journey to the Past, Hey There Delilah, and Once Upon a December. I love the movies Scott Pilgrim VS The World and Anastasia."Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music." ~Ronald Reagan"Life's greatest tragedy is not that it will someday end, but that most only live to follow directions and sometimes we end up totally lost." ~ Alex Gaskarth"Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking." ~ H. Jackson Brown, Jr."Our street corners keep secrets, and our road signs only suggest, never deciding for us, never knowing if the destination to which they lead is where we truly belong." ~ Alex GaskarthAwesome youtube video(s) of the week: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCmRIFVH4O4&feature=player_embedded http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FV-HPOHu8mY more…
