You Are Smiling Today

You are smiling, today
You are smiling
You speak up your mind
That's bold of you

You will be crying, tomorrow
You will be crying
That's just the price we pay
For faking it all

I'm sorry to you
Should've already warned you
I faced the consequences
I don't want you to

Run away, now
Run away
You're torn apart
And it's killing me
Just watching you
Trying to smile at me
It's getting weird and sad
I'm sorry
Can't believe the awful life you have had

Don't be mistreated
You are better than this, better
Know your worth, please don't shatter
Join the pieces together
You're in the wrong situation, that's all

Don't be at their mercy
They laugh at you
They are not your friends
They mock you behind your back
You cry and you know that
You just don't show
Then, when they call
Why do you go?

It tears me up
I could just warn you
You might believe me
But you don't want to

Are they the only people you have known?
I'm right here if you want to cry
Come inside, and dare not lie
I'm on your side, you don't believe me, why?
It's tearing me
But it tears you too
The real smile
Gets everyday
Just harder to recruit

You pick them up
They throw you down
You cry in a corner
They don't show a frown
They'll only be there when they need you
Don't you see
You don't have to be

They're the only reason
You wanna die
But is it worth it?
They're not worth the trouble
Yet, you go back
They smile in your face
Then stab your back

They are not worth your attention
You are so much better
Leave them behind
You'll feel so much better
Be happy, or stay stuck
Please don't choose the latter
Cause you can do
So much better

These friendships are toxic
You don't need these people
They play you
They lure
Got no life of their own
Please don't give them yours

You're smiling today
Talk to me
Let the smile stay

Cause when you forget those people
Leave them behind
The smile would be wider
Your day a 100 times brighter
Trust me when I say
They are not worth your attention
They are the hunters
And you were just their prey

You are smiling today
Let's keep it that way
