Default To the people who smile when they should cry

To the people who smile when they should cry,
And cry when they should smile,
To the people who love where they should hate,
You're less and more human than most,
You take morality,
Over instict,
You take chance,
Rather than fact,
You take death,
For justice,
You take death,
With a spoon full of sugar,
