This Is Not About a Car Crash
i caught a confused look that came across your face
when i said that i was doing okay
It's like you didn't understand how i could smile again
after everything that happened
The flashing lights, the shattered glass
I Said "if i'm headed for heaven it's not very fast"
And you said
"You should torn up
You should worn out
you should be crying
i think...
at least a little bit
It's just not natural
To smile in the face defeat"
and i said... (i said)
it's seems natural to me
I turn my head to side and break a little smile
at thought that you are saying-
"I should give up the front, remove this disguise
and for once open my eyes"
The flashing lights, the shattered glass
I Said "i'm headed to hell with my foot on the gas"
And you said
"You should torn up
You should worn out
you should be crying
i think...
at least a little bit
It's just not natural
To smile in the face defeat"
and i said... (i said)
it's seems natural to me
I don't think you understand
What it's like to be dead inside
It's hard to cry-- when
the fountain has been dried up for years
The fountain has been dried up for years
the fountain has been dried up for years
So don't tell me
i should torn up
i should worn out
i don't think that i should be crying
at all.
It just seems natural to me
To smile in the face of defeat
I smile in the face of defeat
a smile to every face that i meet
a smile is just what you see
