Backstage

We hurry and rush to quickly get upon the air
Before the world sees what we hide in despair

Lights, cameras, action, we go live in five
But all the while we masquerade and in BACKSTAGE in the lies we hide

With makeup on and we try not to show what’s hidden beneath a smile
Take a walk behind the camera of what would be worth you while

You may see glamour , glitter, or gold
Walk behind the camera of what we secretly hide untold

In all the years we hid the secrets, deceit, and lies
Made sure of what the world didn’t see but couldn’t be reconciled

You only see a forced grin hidden behind a troubled face
What you couldn’t see was of the hurt that never could be erased

Come BACKSTAGE to see what is hidden underneath
In front of the stage you can’t see the pain beneath
