Everybody Lies

Look in the mirror what do you see?
"Who I want to be."
Is that the truth or your twisted perseption of reality?
Smile again and tell me what you want me to see.
"I really am happy."
There is no doubt in my mind that that's not the truth.
Look at me and tell me what you see?
"A smile, beauty and a girl who is never sad."
I'll let you believe the lies I proceed to show you.
Broken smiles and broken hearts allow the illusion of perfection.
So as the tears build behind silent eyes,
And the anger fills your chest.
That smile plasters itself and you shake away the tears.
Everybody cries,
Everybody lies.
