It's Getting Harder To Smile

It's getting harder to smile
When no one smiles back
Giving me dirty looks
Judging me just from my looks

It's getting harder to smile
When you tell me I'm dumb
That I need to stop crying
That I need to grow up

It's getting harder to smile
When my tears try to break through
Trying it calm yourself with music
Then let it go by harming yourself

It's getting harder to smile
When it's your family who disclaims you
When you close the door to your room to silence the yelling
When they tell you you're not going to make it in life

It's getting harder to smile
When you have to cry yourself to sleep
Pretending it never happened
Then wake up and let it all happen again
