Letra False smiles Amy Studt

False smiles

They kept a saying; you dont wanna go playing, with the big boys.
Just stick to the backyard; just stay in your mothers arms.
Did you expect me to believe all of the evil lies you whispered when the lights went out?
Theres good in everyone, but you only taught me how to hate.
Im trying hard just to hold my head up from the shadows
Theres more dark than light in me
But you painted that, but you created that
So keep on walking by, dont turn around, just stop pretending that you care
For all the false smiles, theres another dying child
Chorus:
Give me another taste,
Of what youve got to give, I know that I can live life afraid
Take me, one last time
I wanna feel the pain; I wanna feel the shame all the way
(I want to feel 4)
Im realising how much that you can hide behind a pretty face
All the secrets that lie inside, jump out and scar leave without a trace
So I believe Ill find salvation on the other side of the road
For all the false smiles, theres another dying child
Chorus
Ill keep on fighting, keep on writing all the things that you dont want to hear
Just because Ill strike a home truth, of what you want to make disappear
Ill never disappear
Chorus 2
I want to feel 4
