When I listened to Long Distance Voyager a couple days ago, I noticed a few small things in "Painted Smile."
"Deep inside" in the line "And I hurt all the time deep inside" is sung to a descending phrase (E D C), musically giving a sense of that depth.
Similarly, "Put me down" in the bridge ("Pick me up, wind me up, put me down / You'll see me go") is also sung to a descending phrase (Ab Eb C, I think), musically giving a sense of that "put[ting]... down."
