Verse 1: I should be frowning But all I feel is numb Pretending that I’m happy It seems it’s made me dumb
Chorus: Why am I still smiling Smiling for you? You tell me I’m always masked But I know it’s true. Why am I still smiling Phony laughs too Told me I’m always faraway Didn’t think you knew.
Verse 2: “Fake it ‘till you make it.” That is all a lie You can’t get out of the low By pretending that you’re high.
