Salesman smile

You've got those smiling eyes that melt the ladies.
That soft spoken tone that drives women crazy.
You're strong... You're sweet...
You've got all the right moves.
When given the choice, you're who they choose.

Little did we know it's just a salesman's way.
The attention, the affection...
A predator stalking his pray.

What's worse than all that is how convincing you are.
How you can tear a girl down and she'll still feel like a star.
Little changes, empty comments.
We're never good enough for your standards.
We should feel lucky and just learn to manage.

Till we're not sure who we are anymore other than "his girl".
Shadowed from the spotlight
As life unfurles.

Who do you think you are with that salesman smile?
You're given an inch and you steal a mile.
A Womanizer, A chauvinist
With the strongest of masks.
Unable to expose you to others in your grasp.

Aching from the torture
Of what I felt for you
But selling the smile
Is all you care to do...
