"Just be happy"

View profile

Shattering lies,
overwhelming smiles,
and welcoming demons.
Smile for everyone,
smile so they know you are happy.
Lie so they think you are happy.
Welcome the demons so they can help you
fight.
Let the demons control you.
Control the lies.
Produce the smiles.
And work with the demon.
Everyone will think you're happy

while you can continue the

mission.
