Come and see the show
Witness her act without fee
See how her emotions fade so
Watch her change instantly
See how she hides behind her smile
Take a peek and the coats will disappear
I promise it'll be worth your while
Listen and it'll be whimpers you'll hear
It is her true self that has now surfaced
The person no one ever sees
In everyones eyes' her life is perfect
But they don't look behind the scenes
Beyond the velvet curtains
And behind closed doors
On her the world burdens
For much she does mourn
Her face conceals her story
Her masquerade fools us all
Happiness for her will never be
Till death the show will go on
Her dazzling smile feints the crowd
Below her surface are her secrets graves
Her cries not heard among the shouts
With her performance she entertains
With just a quick glimpse
Her pain is revealed
But swiftly she masks weakness
Her composure is regained
Despair will overcome her whole
Her audience evermore oblivious to her misery
Death will soon take its toll
Her story will forever remain a mystery
Come and see the show
Witness her act without fee
See how her emotions fade so
Watch her change instantly
