You smile because you have to, not because you want to.
It's as if the weight of the world is pressing down on you,
And the only thing you know to be true is the pain weighing down on you.
Life isn't easy, I can tell you that,
But you have to push through the pain, you have to push back.
You can't simply give up, I won't allow that.
.
Boy, I've been in your shoes,
Hell, I am in your shoes.
I've seen the world through the darkest of days and the brightest of rays.
I beat the darkness out and I believe you can too, without a doubt.
"If you don't fight, you can't win."
and I won't allow you to lose.
You can't lose.
.
Do you want to know what gave away your biggest lie?
I saw through the cracks to the true sadness in your eyes.
You can't deceive a liar because I already know the lies.
I've told the lies, I've made them my own.
Don't make the same mistakes as me, you've got your own waiting for you, you'll see.
It's about time you learn to truly smile on your own.

and I won't allow you to lose.
You can't lose.

How can a person smile so wide, but feel so dead inside?
Darling there is no need to hide,
You just need to find the light to be your guide.
You can make it out of this darkness, I promise you.
It's okay to be afraid, but just look at all this progress you've made.
There's no way you can lose, you've got the music in you.
