Plastic Smile

Verse 1 Here I lie in misery Waiting for this pain to leave me And it never changes. Nothing ever changes Every day seems longer than the last Broken memories tangle and collapse Chorus Have you ever felt lost inside, falling to pieces from the inside out? Broken dreams and desperate screams hide behind the smile, the plastic smile. Verse 2 Here I stand, jaded and numb Searching for relief that never comes And it never changes, nothing ever changes Nightly prayers become angst-filled tirades Future hope is swallowed in decay Bridge But still I cling to hope, when all seems lost Destitute and scarred, but holding on Trampled through the night, praying for dawn But still I cling to hope, that transcends cost

Please, don't lose track of hope regardless of it transcending cost. Very well written and composed.
