"You smile too much," they say So I stop "Why aren't you smiling?" "You should smile." I'm confused Do I smile or do I not? Tell me, and I'll do it Whatever pleases you I'll smile, even if it's see-through Even if you know it's a lie I'll smile, even if I want to cry If you want me to stop, I will Your wish I will fulfill If my smile is annoying I'll understand I apologize if I seem bland But I can't seem to make you happy You're always so snappy I come home and wish to leave I try, and I try so hard But all you do is disregard So I'm sorry, I guess I'll try harder I'll do as you want I'll be who you want Just please notice If my smile is true or not

I wrote this in under 5 minutes, so I apologize if it's terrible.
