The Smile
Phase Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There is a smile of love and there’s a smile of deceit
There’s a smile of all smiles and the smile where those (two smiles) meet

There is a cry of war and there’s a cry of despair
There’s a cry of all cries and a cry where you

Can meet me
You can
Meet me there


Under the face of god all actions can be foreseen
There’s a peculiar smile crack when the desire is keen

There is a place of sin and there’s a place of remorse
There is a place in god’s grace and the place where you can

Can meet me
You can
Meet me there

There’s that fire above
(That) drives this inspiring love




Then there’s too much to touch
Watch one more lie unfold

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Phase's song "The Smile" describe the duality of emotions in different situations of life. The song talks about how there are different types of smiles, cries, places, and desires that exist. The first two lines talk about how there's a smile of love, which is sincere, and a smile of deceit, which is fake. The following two lines talk about how there's a smile where these two meet, which indicates that sometimes it's difficult to tell the difference between the two smiles.


The chorus talks about how there's a cry of war, which is loud and aggressive, and a cry of despair, which is hopeless and sorrowful. Despite these two opposite cries, there's a cry where one can meet the other person. It can mean that sometimes sad people find solace in each other's sorrows.


The lyrics talk about how under the face of God, all actions can be foreseen, and there's a peculiar smile crack when the desire is keen. This line talks about how even though humans try to hide their desires, their emotions and actions are easily visible to god.


The second verse talks about how there's a place of sin, where people do wrong, and a place of remorse, where people realize their wrongdoings. There's also a place in God's grace, where people find forgiveness for their sins. Despite these three different places, there's a place where one can meet the other person.


The last few lines talk about how there's a fire above that drives inspiring love, but sometimes it's difficult to touch or reach it. There's often one more lie that unfolds, which indicates that even genuine emotions have an element of deception. Overall, the song talks about the complexities of human emotions and how one can find solace in others even when emotions are opposite.
