Common Children Broken Smile lyrics

Remember the hidden treasure
That we find in our lives
Like all of our favorite flowers
Beauty lives, it dies

We wait for what this life will bring
We hope to find what we really need
Lives get broken, left just hoping
Within us all freedom wants to sing
We want to sing

We look at the sun that's shining
But we don't feel the light
And we cry, we cry, we cry for the answer
To dry our tears inside

Can the truth refine and free the soul
When the hurt you have is all you know?
With endless searching and nights of wondering

Someone said, 'Just let it go'

We all know that we all have felt the pain
For a little while
Are we hiding in a secret life of shame
With a broken smile?

With a broken smile
With a broken smile
With a broken smile

We wait for what this life will bring
We hope to find what we really need
With endless searching and nights of wondering
Won't someone please set me free? Set me free
