I just lost my smile...

Playing with a plastic toy
life was like a ride of joy
A cracking sound on the courtyard tile
And before I knew it, I just lost my smile

Was in tears when I broke my Rambo doll
All I could do was cry and bawl.
Startled by my hue and cry
my mother wipes my tears dry

Was eying a place in the hall of fame
while keeping my eye on the game
I lost my game by more than a mile
And before I knew it, I just lost my smile

My father sat beside me
Taught me the rules of the sea.
Told me "The small fish gets eaten by the bigger one,
So always put in your best, my son.

Walking around in La-La Land
We held hands as we walked on the sand
The happiness was short lived, it was only for a while
And before I knew it, I just lost my smile

Enter the world of drugs and sleeze
It sucked me in before I could say please
Love and trust are foregone words
Feel like my remains are being pecked by birds

I still tried to move on with my life
Balancing is hard when you're walking on the edge of a knife
I'm fighting a losing war, realisation took a while
And before I knew it, I just lost my smile

Losing it all in the blink of an eye
Made me ask questions to the spirit in the sky
No response just made me believe it was all a lie
All I wanted to ask was "Why me, Why?"
