Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 I learned early how to read a room Feel the tension like a coming storm Say the words that make it disappear Even if my heart feels torn I can wear a hundred different faces Just to keep the peace tonight If everybody else is happy Maybe I’ll be alright Pre-Chorus But every “yes” I give away Feels like losing more of me Chorus I’m chasing everybody’s smile Running every extra mile Trying just to make it right Even when I lose the fight Say I’m fine, but deep inside I’m drowning in the compromise I bend till I break just to make them stay Living for everybody’s smile today Verse 2 I’m the peacekeeper at the table Always making sure it’s calm But nobody sees the quiet war Between my head and heart I know every expectation Before they say a word But the voice inside me whispering Is the one that’s never heard Pre-Chorus I’m tired of disappearing Every time I say “okay” Chorus I’m chasing everybody’s smile Running every extra mile Trying just to make it right Even when I lose the fight Say I’m fine, but deep inside I’m drowning in the compromise I bend till I break just to make them stay Living for everybody’s smile today Bridge What if I stopped pretending? What if I let the truth show through? Maybe love don’t mean surrender Maybe I can choose me too Final Chorus I’m done chasing everybody’s smile Walking back that extra mile Learning how to stand my ground Even if it lets them down Maybe truth will set me free Maybe grace is meant for me I won’t break just to make them stay I’m done living for everybody’s smile Outro If they leave, then let them go I’m finally learning what I’m worth.
