fake smile (live)
[Intro: Ariana Grande & Wendy Rene]
(After laughter comes tears)
Na-na-na-na, after (After laughter comes tears)
[Verse 1]
Yeah, another night, another party, sayin' hi to everybody
I'm sorry, it's time to leave, I gotta leave now
Got somewhere I gotta be now, I'm starving
Can somebody walk me to my car?
If I go alone, I'm not gon' make it very far
Happy for the love and all of the above
If I'm being honest, I done been through way too much
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't fake another smile
I can't fake like I'm alright
Woo (Ah), woo (Ah)
And I won't say I'm feeling fine
After what I've been through, I can't lie
Woo, baby (Ah), woo (Ah)
[Chorus]
Fuck a fake smile, smile
Fuck a fake smile, fake smile
[Verse 2]
I read the things they write about me
Hear what they're sayin' on the TV, it's crazy
It's gettin' hard for them to shock me
But every now and then, it's shocking, don't blame me
I know it's the life that I chose
Baby, I'm grateful, I want you to know
I'm happy for the love and all of the above
If I'm being honest, I done been through way too much
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't fake another smile
I can't fake like I'm alright
Woo, baby (Ah, woo), oh (Ah)
And I won't say I'm feeling fine
After what I been through, I can't lie
Baby, yeah (Ah, woo)
Let's go
[Chorus]
Fuck a fake
Fuck a fake
[Bridge]
Say, if I'm hurt, I ain't gon' lie about it
Arms crossed with the attitude, lips pouted
If I'm mad, I ain't gon' lie about it
Neck roll with the attitude, yuh
(If I'm hurt, I ain't gon' lie about it)
(Arms crossed with the attitude, lips pouted)
(If I'm mad, I ain't gon' lie about it)
(Neck roll with the attitude, yuh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Said I can't fake (Another smile)
Another smile (I can't fake like I'm alright)
Woo (Ah, woo), said oh (Ah)
(And I won't say I'm feeling fine)
I'm feeling fine (After what I've been through, I can't lie)
Woo, Dublin
Put one hand up in the sky, come on
[Chorus]
Fuck a fake smile, smile
Fuck a fake smile (Fake), smile (Yeah)
