Born Cages Lyrics
"Give Me A Smile"

If you need some help from me
All I've got is sympathy
'Cause a freight train ain't running from its track
And if you've got somewhere to run
Turn around and face the sun
And the shadows will fall behind your back

One of these days you'll be alone
And your friends will move away
So think about what you leave in stone
'Cause the memories, the memories will stay

I think I'll go on holiday
Change my name and run away
What is "honest" if your heart is
Not satisfied with the man inside it

'Cause if you don't have faith in you
There's not much else a boy can do

So give me a smile
Give me a smile

If you need some help from me
All I've got is sympathy
'Cause I, 'cause I don't believe what I've been told
But a foolish heart is worth its weight in gold

Don't just keep on turning just to turn
Can't teach a boy what he don't wanna learn

So give me a smile
Give me a smile

Standing with your cigarette
With the city on your back
Wondering if it's worth it all
To find love in the cracks of rock and roll

So give me a smile
Give me a smile
So come on and give me a smile
