Smile                 By J. Stringer
 

Are you ready?    
Smile..................

Lightening flashes and I close my eyes again.
Lightening flashes and I close my eye’s
again and again and again and again.
But there’s no thunder there’s no rain
only my demons only my pain.
Lightening flashes and I close my eyes again
and again and again and again.

The clock keeps ticking but the time just wont move on.
I hear the click click clicken but the time just wont move on.
Now I’m stuck in this moment stuck in this hell.
Could paint a thousand words but no one would tell.
The clock keeps ticking but the time just wont move on
and on and on and on.

You look so perfect while the camera steals my soul.
You look so perfect and it makes me feel so old.
It sees you smiling but it only brings me pain
and a picture frame.

Now the room is blood red and I’m painfully aware.
Although I am in focus, I just won’t be clear.
You can look so beautiful for everyone to see
but they won’t see me.
But they won’t see me.

You look so perfect while the camera steals my soul.
You look so perfect and it makes me feel so old.
It sees you smiling but it only brings me pain
and a picture frame.
