Smile At Strangers

I won't heal my wound

If I think I deserve less than I'm owed

I'll let it breathe til it bleeds out of control

And I'm afraid

If I don't change

I'll die alone

Smile at strangers on the street

I'm the nicest one you'll ever meet

But if you really knew me

I wouldn't be lonely

In my sleep i visit places i have known

I haven't changed

I felt the same when I was young

Still crossing state lines

To be known by anyone

To take my shoes off

In a place that feels like home

Smile at strangers on the street

I'm the nicest one you'll ever meet

But if you really knew me

I wouldn't be lonely

If you really knew me

I wouldn't be lonely

I always wanted to be the type

To finish a book

Keep a new resolution

But i'm tearing up letters

That i tried to write

And swallowing pills

Just to get through the night

And gripping the seat

On a turbulent flight

I wanna jump in the water

Without thinking twice

But I always think twice

I always think twice
