Cheshire Smile - VERIDIA

They ask me if I’m fine

I just sit nice and pretty

They feed me all these lines

So I go and vomit them back grinning

They think they know what we should like

Our taste disturbs their appetite

They think they know who we should be

But that look don’t look so good on me

No one here seems like they’re alright

Keeping it together

Pretend we’ve never been better

Let’s forget our failures tonight

Don’t need permission

To lose our inhibitions

Everybody’s got a Cheshire smile

Yeah, they’ll never know you’re hurting with a face like that

Such a lovely denial

When you’re dying but you tell 'em that it’s not that bad

Everybody’s got a Cheshire smile

Got a Cheshire smile

No, honey, I’m not fine

If you could just give me a minute

This conversation’s dry

Guess that’s the way that you want, is it?

They think they know how we should feel

Synthetic emotions ain’t real

They think they know which way to go

Follow the leader like a drone

No one here seems like they’re alright

Keeping it together

Pretend we’ve never been better

Let’s forget our failures tonight

Don’t need permission

To lose our inhibitions

Everybody’s got a Cheshire smile

Yeah, they’ll never know you’re hurting with a face like that

Such a lovely denial

When you’re dying but you tell 'em that it’s not that bad

Everybody’s got a Cheshire smile

Got a Cheshire smile

It’s all drag drag, baby

Put away the pretentious

It’s okay to be viscous

I wanna see all your issues

It’s all drag drag, baby

Yeah, you have my attention

Show me the you that’s been missing, yeah

Everybody’s got a Cheshire smile

Yeah, they’ll never know you’re hurting with a face like that

Such a lovely denial

When you’re dying but you tell 'em that it’s not that bad

Everybody’s got a Cheshire smile

Got a Cheshire smile

Everybody’s got a Cheshire smile

Got a Cheshire smile
