take to the grave

somehow i smile
somehow i lIve
somehow i grow
how i do this,
i don't know..

mama once told me
to take to the grave,
everyman's kisses
Ive ever been gave.

i know now what she spoke,
the words i repent..
the truth is melancholy
sad and dull

i beileve in her words
so i shall save
the kisses i have been gave
