Anouk Slootmans Behind a Smile lyrics

(Intro)

Couplet:
Locked me up. Don't know where to turn.
Chaos above in my head. Just want to stay in bed.
The heat is disappearing. I feel so alone.
Wonder who would care.

Nobody understands what is going on in me.
Even I don't.
Sleeping is suddenly a chore. Nights are longer.
It's just so complicated.

Pre-refrein:
Prefer to let it go.
Just act like I'm ok.
Thousand questions in my head.

Refrein:
A smile says not everything
So much has happened.
Why can't I just forget everything.
Smiling just to stop the tears from falling down.
The clouds cover the sun.
Behind a smile.


(Intermezzo)

Couplet:
It doesn't feel good to lie. I have no other choice.
The truth is just in my head.
I want to talk about it but I want to forget it
at the same time.

Pre-refrein:
Prefer to let it go.
Just act like I'm ok.
Thousand questions in my head.

Refrein:
A smile says not everything.
So much has happened.
Why can't I just forget everything.
Smiling just to stop the tears from falling down.
The clouds cover the sun.
Behind a smile.

Behind a smile. Behind a smile.
