I told the moon about you, I told him how you pretend to love reading books, when only love the smell of pages and the fact that it makes you look good. I told him how you prefer tea but drink coffee anyway, because it makes you seem mature. I told the moon about your silent arrogance   hidden behind the kind smile. How you judge people and yet stay friendly with them. How you hide the fragments of your broken family with the illusion you created over time, and how it makes you proud that no one... no one knows your real face. I told the moon about all. The moon smiled at your naivety and I smiled knowing your misery. My poor unfortunate soul, you lived such a wretched  life.

Fragments Beneath the Smile
I told the moon about you, I told him how you pretend to love reading books, when only love the smell of pages and the fact that it makes you look good. I told him how you prefer tea but drink coffee anyway, because it makes you seem mature. I told the moon about your silent arrogance   hidden behind the kind smile. How you judge people and yet stay friendly with them. How you hide the fragments of your broken family with the illusion you created over time, and how it makes you proud that no one... no one knows your real face. I told the moon about all. The moon smiled at your naivety and I smiled knowing your misery. My poor unfortunate soul, you lived such a wretched  life.
