I'm tired of wearing masks
I'm tired of disguising my true self
behind a fake smile
Afraid that my eyes may tell the true story
Eyes are windows to the soul
And it seems the popular decision these days
Is to deny the soul
And nurture the mask
While our demons grow
And our souls die
We worship this little smile
Even though it is tearing us apart
It Hides our true selves
Even from ourselves
Until you believe in the smile totally
Leaving your soul to the demons
And we just keep smiling
Taken by this great farce
A treachery of the highest order
Who would ever have thought
That a simple smile
Could be such an evil thing
