Verse 1
I laugh too loud in the hallway
So no one hears me think
I say “I’m fine” like it’s nothing
But I’m closer than you think
I keep my phone in my pocket
Even though it doesn't hold your name
Every time it starts buzzing
My heart does the same
Because just maybe…
Pre-Chorus
I practice being okay
Like it’s something I should know
But nobody ever taught me
How to let you go
Chorus
I smile for everyone
Like nothing ever went wrong
But every time you walk by
I forget how to be strong
I act like I’ve moved on
Like I’m better somehow
But when I’m alone at night
All my smiles fall down
Yeah, I’m fine in every crowd
Till I’m by myself somehow
I look so tough, so sure, so proud
But you’re my smiles undone
Verse 2
I still sit where you used to
Like maybe you’ll come back
Like one day you’ll just notice
Everything we had
My friends say “you deserve better”
Like that makes it hurt less
If I’m being honest
I just miss you, I guess
Pre-Chorus
I scroll past all your pictures
Like I don’t still care
But every little memory
Is still everywhere
Chorus
I smile for everyone
Like nothing ever went wrong
But every time you walk by
I forget how to be strong
I act like I’ve moved on
Like I’m better somehow
But when I’m alone at night
All my smiles fall down
Yeah, I’m fine in every crowd
Till I’m by myself somehow
I look so tough, so sure, so proud
But you’re my smiles undone
Bridge
Maybe one day it won’t hurt
When I hear your name
Maybe I won’t blame myself
For everything that changed
I don’t wanna fake forever
I don’t wanna pretend
I just wanna feel okay again
Final Chorus
I’m done with smiling for everyone
Like I’m made of stone
I’m learning how to be okay
On my own
I don’t have it figured out
I’m still learning how to run
From the thoughts that tear me down
And leave my smiles undone
Outro
I’m not broken, just learning
How to be brave again
One real smile at a time
Till I find myself again
