Do you know

Do you know

How to paint a smile

Blinding bright in truth

So no-one can see?

Do you know

How to force a laugh and giggle

Carefree, light in honesty

So no-one can hear?

Do you know

How to spin and gossip

With such zest and belief

So no-one remembers?

Do you know

How to go through the motions

Act with such conviction

So no-one notices?

Does no-one know

How to truly look

And not be fooled

By the mask that hides pain?
