A/N

Hey guys, just a quick note, this one is more of a spoken word so if you imagine it being performed as a spoken word in your mind it will probably sound  way better :) Thanks!!




"Brighten up!" they say.

"Put a smile on your face!" they say.

"At least try to be happy!" they say.


Don't tell me to brighten up.

Don't tell me to smile,

And don't tell me to try and be happy!


You'd think I hadn't tried.

You think I like not feeling anything?

You think I like being dragged down constantly 

By the weight thats on my shoulders 

From when I tried to fix you?


I tried to fix you.

I tried to fix you, 

But at the same time you were tearing down my walls

And breaking me.


And they say

"Put a smile on your face."
