A smile hides it all
Every feeling deep inside
All the heartache that you carry
It'll take you for a ride

Understood in every language
Yet never makes a sound
It gives the impression that you're happy
When you're hiding back a frown

No one suspects that there's anything more
Could they be mistaken?
Could they be more mistaken?
Nevermore

Under this smile
Lies my demise
It's taking me under
While fooling your eyes

All the bitterness and hatred
I've kept hidden for so long
Now that I know this
It makes me feel strong

It covers up an insult
Holds back your hate
It's a miracle worker
But it can't change your fate
