[Verse 1]
Sunup, boots on, stare the mirror down
Same old shadows try to drag me out
Medicine cabinet full of what-ifs and doubts
But I still lace up, still walk out the house (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m smilin’ through the smoke, like it ain’t burnin’ me
Laughin’ while I choke on my own memories (yeah)
Got a heart full of hurt, but you won’t see me break
I’m dancin’ with these demons like it’s my birthday cake (woo)
I’m smilin’ through the smoke, even when it’s hard to breathe
Every scar I hide turns to gasoline
If I gotta walk through hell just to feel okay
I’ll fight my demons with a smile on my face (on my face, yeah)
[Verse 2]
Tailgate talkin’ to that big night sky
Ask a couple questions, never get replies (never)
Those late-night voices try to pick that fight
But I turn the truck up, drown ‘em in porch light (yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m smilin’ through the smoke, like it ain’t burnin’ me
Laughin’ while I choke on my own memories (come on)
Got a heart full of hurt, but you won’t see me break
I’m dancin’ with these demons like it’s my birthday cake (hey)
I’m smilin’ through the smoke, even when it’s hard to breathe
Every scar I hide turns to gasoline (turn it up)
If I gotta walk through hell just to feel okay
I’ll fight my demons with a smile on my face (yeah, on my face)
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m cracked, but that lets the light in (oh)
Every bad night just sharpens my grin (my grin)
They circle, they scratch at my name in the dark
But they can’t kill the joke that I’m still here, still sharp (still here)
[Chorus]
I’m smilin’ through the smoke, like it ain’t burnin’ me
Laughin’ while I choke on my own memories (yeah)
Got a heart full of hurt, but you won’t see me break
I’m dancin’ with these demons like it’s my birthday cake (woah)
I’m smilin’ through the smoke, even when it’s hard to breathe
Every scar I hide turns to gasoline (gasoline)
If I gotta walk through hell just to feel okay
I’ll fight my demons with a smile on my face (on my face)
Yeah, I’ll fight my demons with a smile on my face (one more time, yeah)
