smile for the picture (feat. Ivory) Lyrics

Smile for the picture

Smile for the picture that's what they say

Smile for the picture

Smile for the picture that's what they say

They don't care how you feel in real life

They just wanna believe all the lies

So smile, smile for the picture

For the picture, smile for the picture

I've been on the run from myself for too long now

I don't know where I'm headed but I think it's the wrong trail

I can't even seem to put my mind at ease

Now I'm caught in a trance and now I can't sleep

Oh, I've been tryna call, I've been tryna call

But I hit a wall and I bounced back

Fall, Feel like I could fall, Feel like I could

Yeah, hold up

Fucked up head but I still pour a cup 'til the sun up

And that ain't gonna change

I'm a liar to myself but I can't seem to trust no-one else

So don't try it, So don't try it

They say smile the picture, it's a picture I'm not in

You say you moving on but it cuts so deep, I'm just a friend (yeah, hey)

Mixed messages, I just gotta pretend

Professional liar to myself, I just can't ever win

Been too many months waiting, this time you said it'd be different

Still waiting on that lie confront it you just won't listen

In the end, when you're gone, it's my heart you'll be missing

Wanna commit but it's a risk and I'm too scared to go risk it

Picture perfect, so many lies going on beyond the screen

That ain't you but it's a lie that both of us believe

Disappeared from all the photos and now I'm gone

Guess you never moved on so all I can say is

Smile for the picture

Smile for the picture that's what they say

Smile for the picture

Smile for the picture that's what they say

They don't care how you feel in real life

They just wanna believe all the lies

So smile, smile for the picture

For the picture, smile for the picture
