Remember to Smile by Alex Sharp Cole Lyrics
I might lose control, once in awhile
But I remember to smile
And I suffer from no denial
Your criticism seems so small
It seems like you don't know what matters at all
You don't see why I
Employ these methods of mine
But if a dream is a bird in a cage, babe
Yer birthday wish becomes a twisted gun
Hey, it's no fun
To be livin' a life that's a lie, I
Never needed to be number one
Then I might start a rebellion son, or
Some kind. . . of fight for the feeling inside
That's why I might lose control more than once in awhile my friend
But at least I remember to smile
And I remember when I was a child
(intentional hesitation, pause)
There was this story I read / when i was a kid
About a man who woke up with his boots still on in his bed
He could not remember what he did
There was mud on his boots
As he opened the news
To find headlines about strange crimes in the night
This witness heard her shadow laugh and sprint
Now the cops got the mad man's boot prints
So..
Believe me it scares the devil out of me too
That my mind might not know things i do
But i hope you don't mind
If i need someone, sometimes
Heaven knows it's true we mortals
Make immortal mistakes in this life's -got no guarantees
At least we have tonight
To be true to what mind's can't define
(that's the blinding white light)
-for this i might lose control more than once in awhile
And i go with a smile
And i suffer from no denial
(****TRANSFORMATION COMPLETE****)
When the dark towers over the human race
When the last trace of storm cloud departs, fading away
I will stand in the rays of the sun
When the minions of war and wall street are converging below
When the fires begin i will know
That maybe it's time to come home
When the crystal machine at the core of the world
Reunites all the boys and the girls in rainbows and sunlight
As their tears become pearls
Well, then I'll walk down a dead main street
Stop the first person i meet
And say thank you / for being / in the world
Then, in tears i'll tell her
I might lose control once in awhile / but i still remember to smile
What i suffer from is no-denial, child
But I remember to smile
And I suffer from no denial
Your criticism seems so small
It seems like you don't know what matters at all
You don't see why I
Employ these methods of mine
But if a dream is a bird in a cage, babe
Yer birthday wish becomes a twisted gun
Hey, it's no fun
To be livin' a life that's a lie, I
Never needed to be number one
Then I might start a rebellion son, or
Some kind. . . of fight for the feeling inside
That's why I might lose control more than once in awhile my friend
But at least I remember to smile
And I remember when I was a child
