Gin Blossoms – COMPETITION SMILE
Looking up I saw nothing
But blue in the bluest sky
And now it´s creeping across my eye
Going down in my mind, down in my mind
I´m high and I´m hopeless
So help me to get untied
Fast asleep now I´m going blind
Falling down in my mind, down in my mind
Just fine
Emulate the style
A competition smile
Now I´m running, not looking
And opening up my brain
Where it´s easy to lose my name
Looking dumb in the rain, dumb in the rain
I´m hoping you´ll notice
That no one else helps me grow
Oh, it´s not easy to let you know
What I´m dying to show
Dying until you know
Pretending all the while
A competition smile
Now I´ve thrown something far
And it haunts me like a curse
I´m like a stone
Falling hard
And I´m only getting worse
Looking up I saw nothing
But blue in the bluest sky
And now it´s creeping across my eye
And going down in my mind, down in my mind
I´m high and I´m hopeless
So help me to get untied
Fast asleep now I´m going blind
Falling down in my mind, down in my mind
Just fine
Pretending all the while
A competition smile
I´m hiding high
