Story behind the song
"smile when it hurts to peel away your screams..." - Mike Ash(from "Smiling") originally recorded in 1999 @ The Mad Lab Studios By: Mike Ash. One of my favorite tracks from Mike Ash's album, "Swain", released in 1999 & re-issued online in 2014.
Lyrics
smile when it hurts to peel away your screams,
I'd die if I felt the way that I think you might feel everything...
kill when it bleeds, I let them clip my wings,
'cause I'll still fly away, the caged bird always sings....
dilate myself, show you how I felt,
whenever it was me, hiding in my shell,
so sick that you're deprived,
shell shocked, but still alive...
and everything that you believed and all you held inside....
