Lopsided smile
Tear the tears from you eyes
Scream silently you'll never cry,
Stick to your lopsided smile
Counting years like miles
Your speedometre ticking up
Silence, just your beating heart
Lungs straining to convert
The smoke your running through
This is life and truth
Your lies and smiles
Tears you refuse to shed
For the life you could have led
Dunked beneath this possibility
Your life and truth
Just this cruel reality
Scream silently you'll never cry,
Stick to your lopsided smile
Counting years like miles
Your speedometre ticking up
Silence, just your beating heart
Lungs straining to convert
The smoke your running through
This is life and truth
Your lies and smiles
Tears you refuse to shed
For the life you could have led
Dunked beneath this possibility
Your life and truth
Just this cruel reality
