Smile--new original song!

hey guys! i wrote this song a couple days ago after school. i recorded this video right after i wrote it so there are a couple mistakes since i didn't know it that well. hope you like it:)

ps-check out my myspace: myspace.com/oliviamitchellmusic. i just made it so i need some more friends haha

the days are passing slower
and i been getting lower
i thought i'd stick it out but
then i didn't know that
my life was passing by me
and i was spending days just drifting
my feelings all were fading
my mind was growing numb
my goal was concentrating
on everything but fun
i didn't ever think about the fact
that i could turn around
somebody woke me up and said that
i needed a change
then she put on a smile
said that i would be okay
in a while i'd figure out how to
deal with this the right way
right then i saw the sun was shining
i realized that the best thing i could do
was start trying
i never thought a smile then
could make such a difference
suddenly i felt connected, the weight lifted
i could feel good without the stubborn empty
with just a little smile all of the pain just left me
i sense a little sadness
oh i been there before
so i walk a little faster
just to hold the door
i knew that she was down
i could tell just by the way she walked so slow
her eyes showed no emotion
her actions so robotic
and then just for a second her pain
i swear i felt it
i flashback to the harder times
i took a breath and closed my eyes
i tried to think of something
i could do to help her out
oh i put on a smile
said that she would be okay
in a while she'd figure out
how to deal with this the right way
right then we saw the sun start shining
she told me that she knew she needed
to start trying
i never thought a smile then could make
such a difference
suddenly i felt connected
the weight lifted i could
feel good without the stubborn empty
with just a little smile all of the pain just left me
today it was a good day
i had it all together
but then i saw his picture
it made me think i'm never gonna see him
this wait is feelin like forever
but i put on a smile
said that i would be okay
in a while i'll figure out how to
deal with this the right way
right then i saw the sun start shining
i told myself i knew i needed
to start trying
i never thought a smile then could make
such a difference
suddenly i felt connected
the weight lifted i could
feel good without the stubborn empty
with just a little smile all of the pain just left me

You kind of remind me of Taylor Swift (the types of songs you write), but I LOVE Taylor Swift. You're amazing!!! I wish I had a better quality camera so I could put videos of me up. You definitely inspire me. Keep it up.
