Laughing Without Smiling

Clocked in, but you're not really here

Clocked out on another year

Rinse and repeat, still incomplete

As your sense of self disappears

Swimming in a T-shirt

Not enough change for the meter

Killing time, dead inside, and not paid enough to be here

And I see you going through the motions of your life and

It looks a lot like laughing without smiling

Sometimes I wonder why you're suffering in silence

'Cause I can hear you laughing, but I don't see a smile on your face

"Sounds good, see you there"

You showed up, but you don't really care

Same shit, different day

There's gotta be a better way

But we're not getting anywhere

Caught up, somewhere in the middle

Real life, but make it artificial

Gave up, and nothing's ever felt so simple

And I see you going through the motions of your life and

It looks a lot like laughing without smiling

Sometimes I wonder why you're suffering in silence

'Cause I can hear you laughing, but I don't see a smile on your face

Laugh

Smile

Face

And I see you going through the motions of your life and

It looks a lot like laughing without smiling

Sometimes I wonder why you're suffering in silence

'Cause I can hear you laughing, but I don't see a smile on your face

I don't see a smile on your face
