"Smile"

from sketches by cully

/

about

For all those that have ever been told they would look oh so much prettier if only they smiled....Emotional invalidation is fun, ain't it?

lyrics

I've seen
the way you

Go pale
a sad hue

Don't long
for his arms

His words
or phony charms

Sweet nothings
You're nothing
If you need to frown
Don't turn it upside down

Big girls say they don't cry
I wonder what they hide
Cheeks pushed to either side
Show where your teeth reside

Try to let it go
He only wants a show
You only want to cry
Stuck behind the "perfect smile"

Sweet nothings
You're something
If you need to frown
Don't turn it upside down

They say that you're being naive
that your feelings are just a deceit
Oh don't show emotion
just endless devotion
Well I say FUCK THAT and show him a scowl!

He's nothing
You're something
If you need to frown
Don't turn it upside down

If he won't stop his spite
I'll go and pick a fight
