[Verse 1]
I don't want to be sad anymore
I want an open door with no one coming through
I want to find a place where I can sit
A front row center sits no-one will block my view
I want a clock that stops when I come home
A brand new telephone with no memory
I want to say what ever comes to mind
Drink a better wine with better company

[Chorus]
Wish I could pretend to be happy
Wear a smile up on my face
Wish I had a way to ignore me
Just like everybody else
Then I could forget who I wasn't
Be a stranger for a while
I wish I knew how to fake a smile

[Verse 2]
I want to read a new book everyday
I want to plug and play no need to restart
When I dance I want to close my eyes
Don't mind to fall behind Just not fall apart

[Chorus]
Wish I could pretend to be happy
Wear a smile up on my face
Wish I had a way to ignore me
Just like everybody else
Then I could forget who I wasn't
Be a stranger for a while
I wish I knew how to fake a smile
[Outro]
I want to see a different way
What keeps tomorrow from today
Feel accepted for a while
If only I could put on a **** smile
