A Smile Cracks Songtext
I spent a long time, writing postcards in cafes
With my back to a wall, making notes on
Some division, I was looking for

I spent a good while
On diagrams, notations
Consciously know where
Making plans for another daydream
An excuse to go
And I don’t regret
Trying too hard
And I don’t regret
Being naive
Though wasting time
Doesn’t seem bad
When I think back and a little smile cracks

I spent birthdays reading text books
Down by the seaside, watching people having fun
My only language was in my head
Just another teenage affectation

I don’t regret trying too hard
And I don’t regret being naive
Though wasting time doesn’t seem bad
When I think back and a little smile cracks
