Smiling Lyrics

Canonize: borderline

Your doctor says its 'fine, proper fine

Father claims it's too late

And Momma recognized all the signs

If you're saved, don't be late

Your pastor wants your time and your dime

Don't you mind all the rhyme and reason

You're alive, you're alive

'Cause you just might be smiling

Smiling

You can do away with the pain

And the pretentious but sympathetic way

You look into my face

I can run away, I can go

No more looking at someone who doesn't know

My love is an oasis

My two cents: recompense with yourself

And try to die looking right

There's no way to evade your hatred

Or the hills you will climb

My advice is divine and morbidly refined, that's alright

Ride a line, pick a side, and stay there

And you'll find that I'm right

You worry about me

But I can be here

If you'll be here with me

And you just might be smiling

You can do away with the pain

And the pretentious but sympathetic way

You look into my face

I can run away, I can go

No more looking at someone who doesn't know

My love is an oasis
