Your name still lingers in my tone, I talk to crowds, still feel alone. My face puts on a perfect play, But love like ours don’t fade away. They don’t see the war I fight… Behind this smile, I dim the light. These smiles that hurt inside, Where all my truth still hides. I laugh, I shine, I move through days, But pain don’t leave — it just obeys. You left without a last goodbye, Now joy feels like a subtle lie. I wear this grin like a disguise… These smiles… they hurt inside. The world still cheers, I play my part, But every joy rewinds the start. Of how you held me in the dark, Then vanished like a falling spark. I toast to wins, I fake the cheers, But no one sees the silent tears. You’re gone, but still in every breath — A ghost I carry past your death. They say I’m strong, I laugh on cue, But smiling’s hard… when it hides you. These smiles that hurt inside, Still hold the tears I’ve tried to hide. Each joke I make, each laugh I fake, Feels like a wave I barely take. I miss the “me” I used to be, Before you lived in memory… Now all that’s left is what I hide — These smiles… that hurt inside. I smile… but I’m breaking wide. #smilesthathurtinside #emotionalsong #sadlovesong #originallyrics #heartbreaksong #darkpop #rnbballad #emotionalballad #lyricsvideo #indiepop #sadmusic #breakupsong #lofisoul #griefsong #originalmusic 👉    / @lyriccrest
