Love Is Longing Without The Pity

Don't smile unless you mean it.
You can't hide the anger in your heart,
I've seen it.
There's so many reasons for you to live,
But you feel like you have nothing left to give.

Don't cry unless you mean it.
The pain will wipe away,
I'll help you clean it.
Drinking will not take the pain away.
I wish there was more that I could say.

Don't laugh unless you want to.
Did you think that he would be,
The only one who'd want you?
Only an angel could brighten a world so dim.
I am here,
So what do you want from him?

Get angry if need be,
I'll even let you take it out on me.
You deserve so much,
Even when my legs are weak,
I'll still be your crutch.

Just be happy.
Be happy and don't look back.
I'm as serious as a heart attack.
I'll always be that weird guy on the sidelines.
But as long as you're ok,
Then I, too, am fine.
