Smile

When you put me in that noose
And tell me what I meant to you
I'm asking that you tell the truth, that's all I want
Instead you said goodbye forever
Smiled and pulled down the lever
Crowd applauded as I fell, that's all I got

Never gonna get away
Never gonna get another chance to say just what I'm feeling
So take a seat and let me in your brain
So I can take just what I'm needing
If you don't, you know I'm running low
And I can wake from this fucking nightmare
Another way to trick you into thinking
That this smile's not from drugs

You pull me from my resting place
So you can tell me to my face
The weight of all my past mistakes, I'll never grow
I take your hand and try to drown
In waves of disapproving frowns
The night is when I come alive
That's all I know

Never gonna get away
Never gonna get another chance to say just what I'm feeling
So take a seat and let me in your brain
So I can take just what I'm needing
If you don't, you know I'm running low
And I can wake from this fucking nightmare
Another way to trick you into thinking
That this smile's not from drugs

I've been telling you the story of just a girl
I gotta say she has a way about her
To make sure that I'm always miserable
I don't think that I can live without her
Grind my teeth into the pavement
Pull my spine out, hang me with it
Crash my car with your drunk driving
Pray that I don't have my seatbelt on

Never gonna get away
Never gonna get another chance to say just what I'm feeling
So take a seat and let me in your brain
So I can take just what I'm needing
If you don't, you know I'm running low
And I can wake from this fucking nightmare
Another way to trick you into thinking
That this smile's not from drugs
