About seeing beyond the surface
Ever heard the saying
Don’t judge a book by its cover?
Well, don’t judge a person
By the face they put on

What you see may not be
What you’re gonna get
Just cause a girl is smilin’
Doesn’t mean she’s happy

Just cause a guy laughs
Doesn’t mean something’s funny
She could be crying inside
He could be screaming

One of the happiest people
That you think you know
Could have the saddest eyes
While laughing the loudest

Smiles can be faked
Laughs can be forced
Words can be a lie
Eyes tell all

Masks are put on
Then put aside
What you see may not be
What you’re gonna get
