Life smiles, some people say My whole life has been one of those days Sold down the river of complications Life has more side effects than most medications Just because I don't sleep Doesn't mean that I've stopped dreaming Something else always gets in the way Things can change in a day But I'm not too shattered to smile It's the way that it goes The highs and the lows I'm not too shattered to smile I never miss a chance to blow my only chance My door's locked when opportunity's knocking I'm for real, even when I'm fakin' Thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken Just because I don't look Doesn't mean that I've stopped seeing Something else always gets in the way... I'll abuse every excuse in the book I can't hide my devastation Under endless aggravation Loneliness is home… Something else always gets in the way... Still I'm not too shattered to smile I'm not too shattered to smile
