Smiling Disguise

Description

I can’t help but notice, you light up the room, Like a wave on the ocean reflecting the moon

In the sparkling darkness, it feels so familiar and new, Your laugh is a chorus of crystalline air

Everyone in your orbit cannot help but care, As they try to engage you and try not to stare but they do

Still there’s a shadow, a question, a doubt, Something that I recognize.

Surrounded by people who can’t really see you, ‘Cause they’ll never see through your smiling disguise, Your smiling disguise

What do they call you, and how do you feel ‘Bout the people surrounding you, can you be real

And when you need a shoulder, do you have to pose and pretend, Maybe I’m being a little overt

I apologize truly, in my line of work, It’s not often I find myself wanting to be someone’s friend

You see my shadow and question no doubt, Whether I’m wicked or wise

But I’m not these people who can’t really see you, no, I can see right through your smiling disguise,Your smiling disguise

So you take off your mask and I’ll take off mine, Let’s see what we see, let’s see what we find Lest we forget we have limited time after all
