Peril follow everyday.
His addiction, his drug,
Smile! people are looking.
Cry a little, deep inside,
Cry even more, let it flow, the lights are out.
GOD I wait for YOU,
Can YOU please answer.
No I don't want to go that way,
This one last time, the last time.
Never turning away, always giving in,
I'm so weak, wait, I'm strong.
I want to change, I need a shape,
Life is a teardrop on a smiling face.
I look behind, the faces that etched a smile,
I look behind, I see the scars I engraved on hearts...forever.
Forgive me FATHER for I've sinned,
Forgive me love, I'm only human.
Can I come back home, home forever,
The promised land, my only hope.
Torn, battered, and hurt,
I just want to smile, smile forever!
