CARVE A SMILE

For every tear you've shed I'd carve a smile into my skin
you have the unique Ability to damage me, tread carefully
You've have seen to much and in between from where you've been
but tonight, save your eyes

I can't guarantee I'll be the one thing you need
I won't make a promise I can't keep
I can't guarantee that you won't pick up and leave
but I swear, I'll make you smile

And with every kiss you make a better man of me
the safe disguise of accidental lies
won't hide us here, no more my dear
I would sacrifice the air that makes my body breathe
if it keeps you safe

 

I can't guarantee I'll be the one thing you need
I won't make a promise I can't keep
I can't guarantee that you won't pick up and leave
but I swear, I'll make you smile

I was wrong about love, I was wrong all along, I was wrong about life
But I swear, I'll make you smile
For every tear you've shed I swear, I swear, I'll carve a smile
