"Smile" lyrics

You don't need to be happy to smile, just smile
Maybe the happiness will come later

Out there, it's not much better than
In here it's really not so bad 'cause
We have a little family
But do they really like me?

I can't sleep tonight, this is killing me
I still hear her voice, it's a part of me
Screaming in my mind
In my mind

Hold your head up high
Good girls don't cry
Keep your secrets deep inside
Don't try to fight it
They'll hate you if you whine
You'd better hide it
Don't fight, don't scream, don't cry
Don't forget to smile

(Don't forget to smile)
(Don't forget to smile)

I guess it's kinda fitting that I
Look like
The way she treated me
Black eye (Black eye)
Or just a purple button
I think I'll keep that one
To myself

I will be alright (You know that you lied)
Someday I'll be free (You say you're fine, but)
I won't have to fight (You know you can not hide)
If I just repeat (You're terrified)
I don't (All these years of tears you cried)
I don't mind (Still haven't dried)
I don't mind (Though it tears you up inside)
(Don't forget to smile)

(Don't forget to smile)
(Don't forget to smile)
(Don't forget to smile)
(Don't forget to smile)
Hey
Smile
(Don't forget to smile)
Hey
Smile

I will find the light deep inside of me
When the time is right, I will finally be
Free from my own mind
My own mind
My own mind
