I wake up knowing I am nowhere close to where I want to be
I shuffle forward but I can't get further for the life of me
I've trapped myself in sadness on the avenue of smiles
Been driven to near-madness on the avenue of smiles
The avenue of smiles
My heart is wrestling with the hope that everything will disappear
I sit confessing this to anyone willing to lend an ear
I'm drowning in repression on the avenue of smiles
I wallow in rejection on the avenue of smiles
The avenue of smiles
Yeah, the avenue of
Smiles
Smiles
Smiles
What happened, I missed my grin to bring within
And now I'm asking you to pull me out before I suffocate
You alone can make the cloud that's hovering evaporate
And teach me to enjoy life on the avenue of smiles
Teach me to enjoy life on the avenue of smiles
Teach me to enjoy life on the avenue of smiles
The avenue of smiles
Yeah, the avenue of
Smiles
Smiles
Smiles
Smiles
