A Hidden Smile

Quit running around
You’re not going up in flames
Try standing your ground for a change
Why stay where you are?
You’re not frozen to the spot
Try venturing far now that you’ve got nothing to lose
Save for the world you cannot amuse
I don’t know what you want anymore
You can’t stand what I told you
And it’s been a while since we felt any new emotion
We’ve been looking for a hidden smile
It’s not much but it’s all that we’ve got
It’s our hearts that were breaking
Thank god they’re versatile
‘Cause we’ll need something to rely on
When we’re looking for that hidden smile
I think it’s gonna take a while
Don’t feel so distraught
There’s no time for mindless games
Try rational thought for a change
Why are you so blue?
There’s no need to think everything through
Don’t look down, observe, there’s a better view
Nothing to hide
Save for the smile that you keep inside
I don’t know what you want anymore
I can’t stand what you told me
And it’s been a while since I’ve felt any new emotion
We’ve been looking for a hidden smile
It’s not much but it’s all that we’ve got
It’s our hearts that were breaking
Thank god they’re versatile
‘Cause we’ll need something to rely on
When we’re looking for that hidden smile
I think it’s gonna take a while
