Hello my old friend
I’d say its about time we meet again,

I’ll slap you on my face,
Without an ounce of disgrace,

Tears will fall down my face,
But you wont slip out of place.

You’ll replace my real smile
And you’ll stay for awhile.

And I’ll wear you with no disgrace,
Oh fake smile upon my face.
