A smile is on my face.
I could laugh for hours.
I enjoy this merry place.
I stop and smell the flowers.
A twinkle shimmers in my eye.
Laughter reaches abroad.
Everybody thinks I'm a good guy.
No, I am just a fraud.
I tell myself to keep on smiling,
So I smile all day.
I'm unable to smile at reality,
So I treat it as a play.
My smile wavers on my face,
And it stays through every task.
A tear from eternity falls without a trace,
For it's from the cracks within my mask.
