Miles From Kinshasa - Wearing Smiles

It’s no surprise that
On my face it never shows
But wearing smiles for a crowd that’s some
That’s some dangerous ground
(I’ve been staying up)

I’ve been staying up all night
Bought the cheapest flight to denial
(you would never know)
Hoping maybe I’d summon the courage
Instead of fucking a jarn with the same shit going on

Baby are we not
Supposed to tell the truth
Just don’t pretend you never do
When it bothers you

Baby I dunno why
We love to hide the truth
Still we pretend we never do
Before it gets to you
To you

I’d love to say that I
I’ll make a promise to keep it 100 with you
But to that kind of virtue I can’t subscribe
Make that mouth feel good maybe I might reconsider

And now I’m sleeping through the night
On the better side of denial
(on the right side)
No more hoping I’ll summon the courage
And I’m not fucking that someone I shouldn’t

Baby are we not
Supposed to tell the truth
Just don’t pretend you never do
When it bothers you

Baby I dunno why
We love to hide the truth
Still we pretend we never do
Before it gets to you
To you
