I have simple goals To make you happy People with young souls Keep saying life's ****** I hear it all the time How sad and lovely they are If every time they smiled I'd gain a dime I'd be too poor to go far Yet I still stay Say hello and ask how they're doing Same thing every day Blindly shooting Who am I if not the jokester? Do I really belong here? Even in my sleep I stir All the voices in my ear Is everything not enough? Everything I do... I understand it's rough But can I still stand by you?

Things have been rough lately with my friends and myself, it's rare to see a smile (even with a mask) so this is a tribute to those people.
