Sometimes we smile to hide a tear
Sometimes we laugh not to show fear
Sometimes we smile to make people not see
How unhappy we really can be
Sometimes we smile to hide or true intentions
Sometimes we send people through in the wrong direction
When we fake or smiles we lye to ourselves
No one can see we are calling for help
Sometimes we smile to make people feel better
Sometime we smile but are always under the weather
Sometime we cry through or hidden smiles
No one sees or inner child
Sometimes we smile but want to cry
Fake smiles aren’t worth the while.
