Smiling

This is a life of extremes
Both sides are slippery and enticing
These are my places off the rails

This loose recollection of a falling
Barely remember who I failed
I was just trying to keep it together

This is the first wave of my white flag
This is the sound of me hitting bottom
This my surrender, if that's what you call it
In the anatomy of my crash
And I keep on smiling
Keep on moving
Can't stand still

Me, the ceiling-less great achiever
Me, the notorious, perfect mother
Lured to the ends of overwhelm

This is the first wave of my white flag
This is the sound of me hitting bottom
This my surrender, if that's what I call it
In the anatomy of my crash
And I keep on smiling
Keep on moving
Can't stand still

Such pretty forks in the road
On this continuum I've been bouncing
Life flashing promise before my eyes

This is the first wave of my white flag
This is the sound of me hitting bottom
This my surrender, if I that's what you call it
In the anatomy of my crash
And I keep on smiling
Keep on moving
Can't stand still

Can't stand still
