Smile, my boy, smile

'Cause adversity builds character

Who knew that every line you'd write

Would be suffered through torment later

Smile, my boy, smile

Or you'll be outcast

Invite your friends at last

To this party of a lie

Smile!

Build your reputation, and it will carry you.

Smile!

She likes roses, cars and had a miscarriage

And her father is a big shot

So smile!

Close your eyes and smile!

Tighten your tie, iron a shirt and lie

Need some wine

With the best friend in the kitchen at night

You don't need to smile

And can be yourself at this normality isle

She smiles at me

Oh God she has such smiling eyes

And her kiss is a prize

I had never dreamed to win

Smile after lies,

Smile after mistrust,

Smile through disgust

Smile... divorce and don't cry

Fuck this wine, need some whiskey

With the only friend in the kitchen at night

You don't wanna smile

At the last normality isle

Smile when your friend meets a woman

Smile when she’s toxic and rough

Smile when he still hasn't written

Smile when you’ve had quite enough

Cry to djent with a glass of bourbon,

When your glass cries back in unison.

Cry to djent with a glass of bourbon,

The only way to ease the burden.
