Lose Your Smile Lyrics

Outside looking in
Mirrors once again
Nothing left to say
Tomorrow's gone today

Lose your smile
Lose your smile

Sweet lies on your face
Tears are out of place
Sunshine in the rain
Comes in rainbows and leaves again

Lose your smile
Lose your smile

When all the while, child
It's your own self giving in
Who's to blame this time?

Lose your smile
Lose your smile

Dreams, baby, do come true
Dreams, baby, do come true
Dreams, baby, do come true
Dreams, baby, do come true

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

to me, this song is CAN be seen in the context of a breakup, but personally i think its abt sadness in general.\n\nthe person "loses their smile" because they are sad and it affects them and everything around them. \n\nthe "sweet lies on their face" is them saying they\'re ok, that everything is fine. \n\n"tears out of place" because they cry so much.\n\n"sunshine in the rain, comes in rainbows and leaves again" they have periods where they get happy, but ultimately they go back to being sad.\n\n"when all the while, child/it\'s your own self giving in/who\'s to blame this time?" it\'s on the person for letting their sadness affect them so much.\n\n"dreams, baby, do come true" could be the person dreaming of being happy again and that their dream of being happy will come true.
