Why Am I Still Smiling
By Quinn Adaire

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.
