You're smile- like a scar on my arm
So clearly imprinted into me, permanently
But, oh, how these scars do fade
But never disappear
Just like you're smile's glowing radiance
Lingering in my heart forever
Growing dimmer with each passing day
And it seems that I must stretch farther out to reach tomorrow
To keep me from stumbling back to my yesterday,
A somewhat brighter day
Where your smile was somewhat closer to reality
But tripping with every step
Doesn't seem to help at all
All in my eyesight is blurry and bleak
Roads that have signs, and point somewhere
Roads that twist and turn into one path to hell
And your haunting smile still branded in my heart
Still in every breath I take
Still scarred beneath my veins
Words that have no place else to go
So they buzz inside my ear
A crooked stream of eyeliner
Rolling down my cheek
I'm drowning in these memories,
The smile you've left with me
Your smile that represents a broken heart, a weeping soul
Your smile, that has grown too dead to ever live again
