Smile

We need to smile
But the world is vile
I can't fake it, my smile is hasty

The world is shallow
Each soul is hollow
I can't force it, my smile is weak

I'm not a winner
I'm just a beginner
I can't stop it, my smile is fainting

I'm not much for lying
It's not worth denying
I can't feel it, my smile is numbing

The world is so cold
I'm just getting old
I can't help it, my smile is depressing

Im just going to die
I want my goodbye
I can't remember,  my smile is forgotten

I'm never going to know
Was there hope to indulge?
I can't think straight, my smile is evolving

Will the devil win?
I don't want to sin
But I can't fix it, my smile is crooked. ;)
