lyrics

Daddy was a cheater and Mama always knew
I could hear them yelling through the door
Brother hid the bruises and numbed them with the booze
And Sister's cries for help were all ignored

But we always smiled for church and photographs
Making sure our friends and neighbors always saw us laugh
Plastic smiles and airbrushed faces hide the dirty past
Cuz we always smiled for church and photographs

I was just the youngest, so they all left me alone
But my young ears recorded every word
And all of these years later, you'd think that I'd moved on
But sometimes I relive the things I heard

But we always smiled for church and photographs
Making sure our friends and neighbors always saw us laugh
Plastic smiles and airbrushed faces hide the dirty past
Cuz we always smiled for church and photographs

Hiding dirty laundry is about only thing we did
It might help a man save face
But it ain't ever helped a kid

We always smiled for church and photographs
Making sure our friends and neighbors always saw us laugh
Plastic smiles and airbrushed faces hide the dirty past
Cuz we always smiled for church and photographs
