Everybody's Fool

Smiling is an easy task,

Turn up the corners of your lips

One simple movement

Yet everyone is fooled by it.

Laughing is even easier.

Letting a smirk escape out

Or a giggle or chuckle,

That nobody will think much about.

Saying "I'm fine." and acting normal,

Is harder than most people presume.

It's difficult, yet not impossible,

So with practice you can do that too.

So you can smile

You can laugh

You can go on like everythings fine

But beware of the people who care enough to pay attention

As they are never fooled by the look behind the eyes.
