Painted Smiles

Lyrics

**Verse 1:**
In a dusty old hospital, where the shadows play,
A group of dolls sit quietly, night and day.
Their poor dull faces, with eyes so wide,
Hide the sadness they feel inside.

**Pre-Chorus:**
But when the lights go out and the moon is near,
They whisper their secrets, their hopes, and their fears.

**Chorus:**
We're nothing but painted smiles here,
Hiding our tears, year after year.
In this world of make-believe,
We find a way to dream and weave.

**Verse 2:**
Each one has a story, a tale to tell,
Of dreams and wishes, where they once did dwell.
But now they sit still, on FEAR they get high,
With painted smiles, they never cry.

**Pre-Chorus:**
Yet in the quiet, they find their voice,
In the company of friends, they make their choice.

**Chorus:**
We're nothing but painted smiles here,
Hiding our tears, year after year.
In this world of make-believe,
We find a way to dream and weave.

**Bridge:**
Though the world outside may never see,
The hearts that beat so tenderly.
They hold on tight to the dreams they share,
In their painted smiles, they find care.

**Chorus:**
We're nothing but painted smiles here,
Hiding our tears, year after year.
In this world of make-believe,
We find a way to dream and weave.

**Outro:**
So in the silence of the night,
They hold each other, hearts so light.
With painted smiles, they face their fears,
Together, FOREVER through the years.
