six. everything is fine
everything is fine.
because i'm smiling
and as long as i'm smiling everything is fine
please keep talking,
I'll have to smile for as long as you do
if you don't pause, then it'll be longer without those thoughts
i just can't let the silence invade my mind again
please have more to say but don't make me speak
my voice will have to travel over the lump in my throat
i don't think i have that much energy.

and the reasons you hate winter and fall
you'll smile and talk to me
i'll be a copycat and make you believe it is true
See I'm smiling,
Everything is fine
Everything has to be.
