DISGUISE

I'm a master of disguise.
Don't you look into my eyes.
This face that I choose to wear,
Hides what really exists there.

When you ask me how I am,
I will say that I'm all right.
Though I feel anything but,
I will keep things all polite.

Smile and I'll smile back;
In an ordinary way.
You'll see nothing to suggest,
That I yearn for you each day.

I'm a master of disguise.
Please, just look into my eyes.
For I do want you to see,
What you really mean to me.
