This Smile Is Real

This Smile Is Real

A Poem by shane
"

written after listening to fightstar, kinda about a friend

"

 This smile is real

You stumble and you fall

Your running circles all around us

The cuts you wear are wearing thin

We can see the scars don’t exist

I'm not asking for anything

But you can't have it anymore

No I'm not asking for anything

I'm not asking anymore

 

(Chorus :)

I'm washing away the dirt, the tears

I'm taking off this target

I'm cleaning out everything that you left here

I'm washing away the hurt, the scars

Don’t you come looking for me

Go aim your pain at someone else

 

I'm sick and I'm tired

Of being the only one

I'm drunk and I'm fucked up

I'm ready to have some fun

You’re ready to forgive me

I'm not looking for it

Go cry wolf to someone else

 

(Chorus)

 

You want help but you don’t offer

You walk by when I'm sitting in the gutter

F**k this, this smile is real this time

I'm not letting you bring me down

 

I'm washing away the dirt, the tears

I'm taking off this target

I'm cleaning out everything that you left here

(You want help, but you don’t offer)

I'm washing away the hurt, the scars

Don’t you come looking for me

Go aim your pain at someone else

 

F**k this, this smile is real this time

I'm not letting you take me down anymore.
