Lyrics
I'm feeling down and out
Expressing a feeling of being emotionally low.
Can't shake this feeling of doubt
Struggling with persistent uncertainty or lack of confidence.
Trying to keep my head held high
Attempting to maintain a positive outlook.
But inside I'm asking why
Internally questioning the reasons behind the struggles.
I put on a smile and hide all the pain
Wearing a metaphorical smile to conceal inner pain.
Pretend that everything's okay
Pretending that everything is fine despite inner turmoil.
But it's just a mask, a façade I wear
Acknowledging the smile as a facade for hiding true emotions.
To hide the hurt and all the fear
Using the mask to conceal emotional hurt and fear.
Walking through the day, just going through the motions
Mechanically navigating through daily routines without genuine emotion.
Trying to find a glimmer of emotion
Searching for any positive emotional spark in the mundane.
But everything just feels so empty and bleak
Feeling a pervasive sense of emptiness and despair.
I'm lost, I can't seem to find my fears
Expressing a state of being lost and unable to confront fears.
I try to find a glimmer of hope
Attempting to find hope amidst suffering.
In the midst of all this misery and grief
Navigating through misery and grief.
I hold onto the memories of better days
Clutching onto memories of happier times.
And pray for a future of relief
Hoping for a future free from current suffering.
I put on a smile and hide all the pain
Repeating the theme of concealing pain behind a smile.
Pretend that everything's okay
Maintaining the pretense that everything is normal.
But it's just a mask, a façade I wear
Highlighting the smile as a deceptive facade.
To hide the hurt and all the fear
Using the smile to mask hurt and fear.
I put on a smile and hide all the pain
Repeating the act of wearing a smile to hide pain.
Pretend that everything's okay
Pretending that all is well despite inner struggles.
But it's just a mask, a façade I wear
Emphasizing the mask as a facade for concealing emotions.
To hide the hurt and all the fear
Using the mask to hide emotional pain and fear.
But I know I'm not alone
Acknowledging a sense of shared experience with others.
There are others who feel just like me
Recognizing that others go through similar emotional struggles.
We all put on a smile
Emphasizing the collective act of wearing a smile.
And try to make it through the day
Struggling collectively to navigate through daily challenges.
We put on a smile and hide all the pain (so I smile, oh)
Reiterating the theme of concealing pain behind a smile.
Pretend that everything's okay (I smile)
Pretending that everything is fine on an individual level.
But it's just a mask, a façade we wear
Underlining the collective facade of wearing a smile.
To hide the hurt and all the fear (I smile)
Using the collective mask to hide shared hurt and fear.
We put on a smile and hide all the pain
Repeating the collective act of concealing pain with a smile.
Pretend that everything's okay
Maintaining the collective pretense that everything is normal.
But it's just a mask, a façade we wear
Reiterating the collective theme of using a facade to hide pain.
To hide the hurt and all the fear
Emphasizing the collective use of a mask to hide shared hurt and fear.
