A Smile Full of Lies
April 5, 2013
We put on this smile that laughs and lies,
To hide the shame we feel inside, -
This price we pay for being alive;
With bleeding arms and broken hearts we die,
And these mouths preprogrammed with only lies.
How can man be so blind,
Subtract the tears and forget the sighs?
Nay, we say we will be fine; While
We wear this smile that laughs and lies.
