Plastic SmilesA Poem by IanTo my little sunshine, with the most sincere desire to stab you, your loving friend...You brought me happiness wrapped in deceit paper Pretty mask on; you caught me at low speed In exchange for my soul you dyed me pale yellow And bought me as player of your dirty little game Well, I’d like to smile just for this time You know how much I love to see you crying Just because I know you’re lying Lure so perfectly disguised in a friendship dress Then throw me in this little box you gave me To weave these strings around my arms and legs But I still have to admit that you dyed me pale yellow Well, I’d like to smile just for this time You know how much I love to see you crying Just because I know you’re lying Incorruptible smile, see the light you irradiate Dear, you’re degrading your pale yellow color to gray For I was the machine checking your vital signs But now I’m unplugged to see your stained soul Well, I’d like to smile just for this time You know how much I love to see you crying Just because I know you’re lying I’d love to hear your name, sunshine You confuse me with your fake smiles Oh, I’d love to hear your name, little sunshine You’re just a terrible liar, darling Well, I’d like to smile just for this time You know how much I love to see you crawling Just because I know you’re faking Well, I’d like to smile for one last time You know how much I love to see you falling Just because I know that you were lying © 2011 IanAuthor's Note
