Take it,
but don't fake it.
Wear it around,
but don't let it weigh you down.
Soon you'll feel the responsiblity,
experience all the hostility,
connect up to what it takes,
to wear this smile of mistakes.

A war put it on my face,
I went through hell in this place,
just to wear this smile,
now it's a part of my style.

Wedged in stone,
diamond formed throne,
 be here till I'm gone.

But you take it for awhile,
wear it a country mile.
When the pressure begins to burn,
simply make a return.
I'll be glad to take it,
and continue to make it.

Thanks for the break,
I enjoyed the take.

Nothing personal,
just business,
now you're my
witness!

Lifes a itch!

But I smile!
