Smiling Through The Pain

from Birth Of The Bird by Prince Pheonix

/

about

A song I wrote when a friend needed to be cheered up, plain and simple, one of my friends thought that she didn't have anyone to turn to in times of need and that gave me the inspiration to write this, as Friends are Friends and if they don't cheer you up when you need to be, then they aren't very good at their job.

lyrics

You can’t go through life
Feeling down and alone
When your not, you’re not alone
When you fool your friends into thinking your happy

All you gotta do, yes, all you gotta do is
All you gotta do is turn that frown upside down
And then you’ll be…

Smiling through the pain, because you are not alone

Let your happiness guide you through
And know that when your friends are with you
You’re smiling through the pain
Of the death of sadness

You may think that you’re not loved, by your friends
But let me tell you that
The love from your friends is strong enough

To break through, to break through
To break through the sadness
And then you’ll be…

Smiling through the pain, because you are not alone

Let your happiness guide you through
And know that when your friends are with you
You’re smiling through the pain
Of the death of sadness

Don’t let sadness overtake your mind, be happy, be happy
Don’t let sadness bring you down
Lock you up and throw away the key

All you gotta do, yes, all you gotta do is
All you gotta do is turn that frown upside down
And then you’ll be…

Smiling through the pain, because you are not alone

Let your happiness guide you through
And know that when your friends are with you
You’re smiling through the pain

Oh yeah, 'cause you are not alone

Let your happiness guide you through
And know that when your friends are with you
You’re smiling through the pain
From the death of sadness

Began to write music upon turning 12, Starting a debut album Birth Of The Bird near the time my grandma passed on. Consisting of songs based on real life events that happened during early 2008, with later albums, continuing along that theme. I produce songs that are full of emotion, so they end up becoming stories more than songs. ... more
