A brand new song: "Smiles and Lies"


This week’s song is a brand new one.  The hook (“smiles and lies”) as well the verses came really quite quickly to me last week (thank you, muse!), but the song needed a bridge, which finally came to me today.  So I sat down and recorded it and here it is:



It isn’t the most polished performance because I haven’t practiced it much since it is so new, but I thought I would be fun to share a new one with you.

Title: “Smiles and Lies”
Written May 2013

Lyrics:
Smiles and lies
They’re all smiles and lies

Just who do you think you are?
An imposter’s design?
Just change everything you are
And you’ll fit in just fine

They’re all smiles and lies

Everything is ugly now
What’s this all about?
On the outside, looking in
Yet on the inside, wanting out

They’re all smiles and lies

Don’t assume the best scenario
That you’ve got it in the bag
Imposter or chameleon?
Yeah identity’s a drag

They’re all smiles and lies

Feed your addictions
They’re all you have
They’re all smiles and lies
