~Miracles in the Flesh~

A smile can hold so much meaning.
A frown can bring down everything.
I watched from the darkness for so long,
But eventually realized it was so very wrong.

My eyes hold all the answers for you,
Bathed in moonlight they shine like new.
But do you really know how I feel?
How much I really need to heal?

There is a smile of a pure heart,
Do you know where mine will start?
The mask I wore for so long falls down
And you finally see me, the saddest frown.

Suddenly everything makes sense,
My eyes show the pain, it is intense.
The pressure became too great you see,
For so long my silence was key.

It's too late now, this is real, this is me.
Accept me or reject me, I can live capably.
Take my hand, please be my friend,
Or push me down and hate me till the very end.

With or without you, I can still get by,
I stood in the dark for too long, I am no longer shy.
Friends or not, I have someone special, she is amazing.
If I had to describe her in two words, it'd be "Life saving."

So you see the real me in my eyes and in my frown,
I quickly smile, to hide how much I've been put down.
You'd never know the difference if I hadn't shown you,
But just in case you didn't know, I have happiness too.

I found it in that amazing girl a while back,
When I was kicking rocks down the train track.
I looked up and saw a beautiful smile,
And the sun shone on her beautiful face all the while.

For the first time in years, I smiled for real.
She took my hand, oh the love I did feel.
We walked on and on, mile by mile,
And the entire time we looked ahead with a smile.

My heart melted when her lips touched mine.
My pain and sadness was gone, everything felt fine.
I was reborn from that moment on,
No longer did I feel like just a pawn.

So you see friend, no matter what you do,
You can't hurt me, my feelings are still brand new.
The frown I showed was really the fake all along.
The pain you thought I had was also wrong.

Once again, I fool you and everyone.
My smile is real, for my feelings have been won.
I ask one last time for your sake,
Be my friend or be a fake?

A smile can hold so much meaning.
A frown can bring down everything.
I watched from the darkness for so long,
But now I have turned this tale into a beautiful song.
