Broken Smile
Finding Freedom Amidst Broken Smiles
Lyrics
Remember the hidden treasure
Reflecting on valuable, hidden aspects of life
That we find in our lives
Finding treasures within our life experiences
Like all our favorite flowers
Comparing life's beauty to favorite flowers that bloom and fade
Beauty lives and it dies
Acknowledging the transient nature of beauty
We wait for what this life will bring
Anticipating what life has in store
We hope to find what we really need
Seeking genuine needs amidst life's uncertainties
Lives get broken left just hoping
Expressing the pain of shattered lives, clinging to hope
Within us all freedom wants to sing
Recognizing the innate desire for freedom within everyone
We want to sing
Emphasizing the longing to express oneself freely
We look at the sun that's shining
Observing the external brightness while feeling internal darkness
But we don't feel the light
An inability to perceive the positive aspects of life
And we cry, we cry, we cry for the answer
Crying for answers to alleviate internal pain
To dry our tears inside
Seeking solutions to emotional distress
Can the truth refine and free the soul
Questioning if truth can purify and liberate the soul
When the hurt you have is all you know
Living with familiar pain and questioning the possibility of change
With endless searching, and nights of wondering
Enduring a continuous search for meaning and sleepless nights
Someone said just let it go
Receiving advice to let go and move on
We all know that we all have felt the pain
Acknowledging shared experiences of pain
For a little while
Temporary endurance of pain
Are we hiding in a secret life of shame
Questioning if people hide behind a facade of shame
With a broken smile
Living with a smile that conceals internal brokenness
With a broken smile
Reiterating the theme of a broken smile
With a broken smile
-With a broken smile
-We wait for what this life will bring
Repeating the anticipation of life's offerings
We hope to find what we really need
Reiterating the hope to find genuine needs
With endless searching, and nights of wondering
Continuing the search and questioning
Won't someone please set me free
Pleading for liberation from internal struggles
Set me free
Emphasizing the desire for freedom
