~Smiles Can Be Lies~

See that girl over there?

The average one, with the uneven hair.

She's not who you think she is.

All her pain can't be sealed with a kiss.

She smiles all day, tries to keep it together

but pain like that can't be tethered.

Her hair?

She thinks no one cares.

Her tearlines?

She doesn't dine.

The glasses come off,

the hair comes down.

All of that beauty yet to be found.

She sits by the toilet, pill in hand

all because she likes that band

She doesn't want to be flawed

her self image is clawed

and all she is is pure bone.

However, skinny isn't healthy.

Fame doesn't make you wealthy.

she's right back where she started from.

maybe she agrees now she's done.

the next time you judge someone

no matter how big the smile

you have to remember

smiles can be lies
