Constellation Smile

Your smiles never reach your eyes, these days

In the safety of  'I don't know'  you can cry

The world is spun with gold, child

And you only see through the crystal glass

Turning fates and watching the stars

Those smiles are impossibly harsh 

In the cruelty of silence 

 For your mouth and mind are closed

To the fears and darknesses you live in

Someone has gaged you with that smile

And painted your face in vengeance

You wear it like a badge 

As though others are blind

They just don't know 

Don't know how to sop up the pain

That you hide inside

And how to crack the plaster mask

They just want your smile

I just want your smile

And I want to see it brighten those eyes

Like a thousand fireflies 

And for you to notice yourself

Once in a while

Because you are a constellation

A symphony of beauty 

Your smile is my melody 

Oh what I would do to hear it again
