Did I hear you laugh
|
Or was that a scream?
|
I don't quite think you're what you seem
|
Is there an honest face
|
In a hidden place waiting to be seen
|
It's just another day
|
In your tragic play
|
And then I hear you say
|
"It's changed"...but there's something strange
|
'Cause you're not the same...
|
|
When you smile
|
I can see the pain and the sadness makes me cry
|
Your eyes
|
Are an open door to the fiction in your life
|
|
Is that a happy face
|
Or a hiding place?
|
'Cause your smile's not so real
|
Is there a touch of science to your silence
|
When it comes to what you feel?
|
|
It's just another stain
|
on your robe of shame
|
And now it's just so plain to see
|
That you're just like me...emotionally
|
|
When you smile...
|
I can see the pain and compassion make me cry
|
Your eyes...
|
Are an open door to the fiction in your life
|
|
If it's the truth that hurts
|
Then see how you're killing me
|
So easily...when you smile
|
|
When you smile
|
I can see the pain and the sadness makes me cry
|
Your eyes
|
Are an open door to the fiction in your life
|
