EXCHANGED EXPRESSIONS

With such a long face,
How can I fake a smile?
I promised I'd fake one for you.
With such a long face,
How could you make it worthwhile?
You promised to help me through.

I'd hope to close off the doors,
Barring entry 'til they broke through.
But I'd locked myself in
And forgot you in the rush.
Banging on the door,
I can't find the key to help you.
Bound by my mistakes
I wait for my dream to crush.

With such a pretty face,
I'd hoped to embrace your smile.
I promised not to feel at all.
With such a pretty face,
You gave me your denial.
You promised not to break my fall.

Searching frantically,
I'll never find the key.
You hold the line
But you can't save me.
