lyrics

WEARING A SMILE

how did you guess what I was thinking
did you see the mess in my head
how long did it take you
to come up with a story like that

what the hell, girl, was I thinking
as I was waiting for you
while my heart froze deeper and deeper
going this way you choose

I've been moving on, I thought
but I was standing still
I have fled your thrill
but you're still haunting me

what to do
what to say
no need to ask
you won't tell me anyway
and by the end of the day

I'm chasing my lies
I am tired
but I'm dressed in a smile
I'm chasing my lies
wasting my time
I'm chasing my lies
wasting my time
but I'm wearing a smile

do you remember when we used to lie
so peacefully
I'd sing 'lay lady lay' again and again
but you turned so alien to me

I've been moving on, I thought
but I was standing still
I have fled your thrill
but you're still haunting me

what to do
what to say
no need to ask
you won't tell me anyway
and by the end of the day

I'm chasing my lies
I am tired
but I'm dressed in a smile
I'm chasing my lies
wasting my time
I'm chasing my lies
wasting my time
but I'm wearing a smile
I am chasing my lies
wasting my time
but I'm wearing a smile
