disguise

Have you ever felt some kind of emptiness inside
You will never measure up, to those people you
Must be strong, can’t show them that you’re weak
Have you ever told someone something
That’s far from the truth
Let them know that you’re okay
Just to make them stop
All the wondering, and questions they may have

Have you ever seen your face,
In a mirror there’s a smile
But inside you’re just a mess,
You feel far from good
Need to hide, ‘cos they’d never understand
Have you ever had this wish, of being
Somewhere else
To let go of your disguise, all your worries too
And from that moment, then you see things clear

Are you waiting for the day
When your pain will disappear
When you know that it’s not true
What they say about you
You could not care less about the things
Surrounding you
Ignoring all the voices from the walls
