What Our "Smiles" Mean
Everywhere
Everywhere you look
Everywhere you are
Everywhere someone’s smiling
To think their happy is just being naïve
Nowadays all everyone does is put up a facade
Guarding there heart with walls so strong
Thinking no one, not a soul could break them down
How innocent it all seems
Behind these “closed doors” ,
All we do is wait for someone to open them
We put up our walls, waiting
Waiting for someone, anyone to break it down
As much as we complain, cry, harden our hearts and block out the world
We still do…all of us
We all want nothing more then to have someone
To understand, care, love and maybe even just notice us
No matter who it is
Its all the same in the end
Were all the same in the end
We make excuses about everyone, about everything
Just to make some kind of twisted sense
Yet it makes it worse
And somehow…somehow we fail to see it
So as we smile we wait, patiently
Everywhere someone’s smiling
