Reasons I'm Not Smiling But Can't Tell You
1.) I use up every ounce of energy inside me just to stay alive
I don't have enough to keep up my disguise
All my energy goes to getting out of the bed in the morning and trying to eat
I can't smile to make your day complete
Because my energy would then be depleated
And I would be defeated
2.) Not smiling is the way that I can keep
My fake strength and people won't see that inside I am weak
Not smiling allows me to be predator instead of prey
And now I don't have to play
The cherrade of the fake smile on my face.
3.) I'm tired of parading around
Trying not to forwn
Trying to please you
As you spit on the ground.
