i'm as good as i can be,

wishing this smile could be brighter.

i'll bow down at your feet,

wishing my soul was more of a fighter.

for nothing will ever change,

no matter how hard i hate who i've become

and still, i offer you more,

giving up the finality of my soul's freedom.

and i am just me,

there's really nothing much left.

smiling as hard as i can,

to your insults, these ears have gone deaf.

i'm as good as i can be,

wishing i could make this fake smile real.

i'll bow down to your feet,

of my fading life, this soul you may steal.
