Made Up Smile - Dream State

So good, so bright, so bold

So bad, so dull, so cold

We’re meant to feel the touch of real love

We’re nearly out of time

To try and open minds

I really hope it’s worth it

Welcome to the circus

Go!

Is it just my perception

I’m stuck with this question

Is there more to life than what meets my eyes?

I can’t be converted

This world feels inverted

We watch things die more times than I like

I don’t want to be another clone

This hypocrisy is too close to home

Where is the integrity?

Where’s the love?

Is it me or have we not had enough?

Just look, what we’ve done

We’re fooling around, playing the clown

I don’t want a made-up smile

I don’t want to pretend I’m fine

Just look, what we’ve done

We’re running around, playing it down

I don’t want a made-up smile

I don’t want to pretend we’re fine

(Welcome to the circus)

We pull all the strings and dance around the notes

Looking for a quick fix to wash the blood from our throats

Behind windows

All alone

I don’t want to be another clone

This hypocrisy is too close to home

Where is the integrity?

Where’s the love?

Is it me or have we not had enough?

Just look, what we’ve done

We’re fooling around, playing the clown

I don’t want a made-up smile

I don’t want to pretend I’m fine

We’re stuck in a circus

Just trying to find a purpose

Hanging onto tight ropes

Our hearts are on the down-low

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I’m just looking for something more

Even though I feel insecure

What’s even real anymore?

Lights up

Cause less hope is hopeless

I don’t want to be another clone

This hypocrisy is too close to home

Where is the integrity?

Where’s the love?

Is it me or have we not had enough?

Just look at what we’ve done

I don’t want a made-up smile

I don’t want to pretend I’m fine

We’re stuck in a circus (so bright, so bold)

Just trying to find a purpose (so dull, so cold)

Hanging onto tight ropes

With our hearts on the down-low

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself when I’m bored

I can’t help myself
