Smile for the Camera

Smile for the camera
Though everything is black 
Keep the facade going
And never ever look back

White, an angel, plus a prince
Nothing has been the same since

Tears and fears and shades of gray
Never look for what they are
Just launch headfirst into the fray

Sepia in it's dull brownish hues
It's oh so painful, 
Thinking of you 

Dreams and hopes and technicolor 
Zipzapzot zonnikazaa
All these settings
On my camera

So many ways of looking at life
Through all the laughter
The tears and the strife
