You see the smile that's on my mouth It's hiding the words that don't come out

Artist- Brandi Carlile
Song of the day- The story

So I just watched this week's "musical" Grey's Anatomy, and like many millions of American viewers, I can't seem to stop talking about how weird it was. And how much it didn't work and how uncomfortable it made people. It made Kids Inc. seem like a musical masterpiece (which it was) but I'm so baffled by it I literally can't stop talking about it to people who don't even watch it and maybe soon strangers...which perhaps was their plan all along, if so well played Grey's. The only admiral go for musical synergy might be found in the end song, which luckily a Tony award winner sang, it actually fit with what was going on and well it's just a damn good song and I must admit the show version did make me realize how extra amazing the lyrics are. So whether you are hit by a truck get neurological damage and start hearing people sing to you, or just need a wailing jolt of musical emotion, this one's for you.



All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do
I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what
I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
