Slap a smile on your face,
And keep walking.
Push the feelings down,
And keep walking.
Wipe the tears away,
And keep pretending-
Pretending you're okay,
That you don't hurt.
Swallow the scream,
And keep your silence.
Close your mouth,
And keep your secrets.
Wipe the despair off your boots,
And keep on marching.
Be a tough soldier,
And keep on fighting.
