Plaster a smile on,
Don't let them see you hurtin'. Answers don't come knockin',
Cause you ain't got nothing to advise.
Your smile cannot compair.
Even to a candle that whispers your name.
Dear God give you strength,
Hold your mask to your face,
Don't let them see you cryin',
It's only weakness in their eyes.
I'll sing you a song to make the tears go away,
If that'll help you sleep at night.
Even if thats only tonight.
Whisper my name as you look to the sky.
When all is wrong,
Dear God give you strength.
Face nother day,
Even if its just today.
Don't break apart,
My shoulders are your's to cry apon.
I'm open for you,
Cause you don't have the strength to go on.
Cause your plastered smile is disappearing as quick as you are,
So smile in your sleep.
