Best Fake Smile Lyrics - James Bay

1 No you don't have to wear your best fake smile

2 Don't have to stand there and burn inside

3 Oh oh oh, if you don't like it.

4 She's working late and making eyes at the door

5 She's sick of everybody up on her floor

6 She wants the sun in her eyes but all she gets is ignored

7 She used to put it out and get it all back

8 But now she's slipping trying to carry the act

9 She's sweating under the lights, now shes beginning to crack.

10 No you don't have to wear your best fake smile

11 Don't have to stand there and burn inside

12 Oh oh oh, if you don't like it.

13 And you don't have to care, so don't pretend

14 Nobody needs a best fake friend

15 Oh oh oh don't hide it.

16 No hesitation, now she gets up and walks

17 She thinks of all the pain and the pride that it cost,

18 She empties all the tip jars, it won't get back what she lost.

19 Outside the windows with two fingers to show

20 She lifts her head up just to blow out the smoke

21 She doesn't have to look back to know where she's got to go.

22 No you don't have to wear your best fake smile

23 Don't have to stand there and burn inside

24 Oh oh oh, if you don't like it.

25 And you don't have to care, so don't pretend,

26 Nobody need a best fake friend

27 Oh oh oh don't hide it.

28 If you don't bleed it, you don't need it anymore,

29 If you don't need it, get up and leave it on the floor,

30 No more believing

31 Like it's a voice you can't ignore

32 If you don't need it-you don't need it.

33 And you don't have to wear your best fake smile

34 Dont have to stand there and burn inside

35 Oh oh oh

36 No, if you don't like it.

37 And you don't have to care, so don't pretend,

38 Nobody needs a best fake friend

39 Oh oh oh

40 Don't hide it.

41 And you don't have to wear your best fake smile

42 Don't have to stand there and burn inside

43 Oh oh oh

44 If you don't like it.

45 Oh oh oh

46 No, if you don't like it.
