[Verse 1]
Life's circumstances
Things that bring you down

There are people all around me
But I do not hear a sound.
Physically im dying

My spirit is dead
Somebody stop these voices from screaming in my head!


[Chorus]
I've been down,
But I'm smiling on the outside

Smiling on the outside.
I've been down,
But I'm smiling on the outside

Hiding on the inside from it all.

[Verse 2]

Pain can be deceiving
It kicks me when I'm down
Saturates my every thought

And works to steal my crown.
There's a sense that life is fragile
It crumbles at my feet.

Life is more than broken dreams;
Its more than my defeat.


[Bridge]
Once lived a life full of happiness.
Now I live in disguise.

Life doesn't always seem to show through.
But I know that there is more to life
Than all these things I lose
