Smile

[00:18.87] Child, our daughter

[00:23.15] Sit while we talk awhile

[00:27.13] You’ve done no misdeed

[00:31.38] Still they’ll put your life on trial

[00:35.63] Born like your family

[00:39.63] Far from any state of grace

[00:43.41] You’re as perfect as the wind and sky

[00:48.12] But they’ll treat like you’re out of place

[00:51.89] This world is cold

[00:56.38] The power’s with those who would judge and control

[01:00.63] But we have a chance to make it right for you

[01:08.38] This is what you’ll do

[01:20.63] Show them how you smile

[01:24.88] It’s only for a while

[01:29.38] Take what you need

[01:31.63] Leave them to bleed

[01:34.38] Let them know bitter

[01:36.38] While your revenge is sweet

[01:50.63] Keep the secret

[01:54.64] Pretending you’re just like them

[01:58.62] Live there like a princess

[02:02.64] In the kingdom of selfish men

[02:07.38] Play their game now

[02:11.39] Do what it takes to win

[02:15.40] Steal it back all they keep from you

[02:19.63] They refuse to look beyond your skin

[02:23.88] And as you grow

[02:27.67] You’ll gain from their knowledge but your heart will know

[02:32.14] When the time is right to end the lie

[02:37.37] You’ll know what to do

[02:39.88] When the charade is through

[02:44.88] Show them how you smile

[02:48.66] It’s only for a while

[02:53.13] Take what you need

[02:55.13] Leave them to bleed

[02:57.38] Let them know bitter

[02:58.92] While your revenge is sweet

[03:02.63] You might think that maybe they’re changing

[03:06.38] You’ll pray that their hatred is waning

[03:10.69] That’s when it hurts most to find

[03:14.13] The story unfolds

[03:15.63] And their cruelty’s exposed

[03:17.88] You’ll be glad you’re not their kind

[03:39.12] Show them how you smile

[03:43.13] It’s only for a while

[03:47.38] Take what you need

[03:49.38] Leave them to bleed

[03:51.37] Let them know bitter

[03:52.87] While your revenge is sweet
