Everywhere I go they smile wide and wave

Got my name on their lips

It's a masquerade

Acting like they've known me since the dawn of time

But I see through their eyes

It's just a pantomime

Snapping selfies

Making sure they're tagged

In the background my heart's feeling jagged

Faking all their love

It's just a disguise

Can't dance with me

I can see through the lies

Oh hey hey you say you know me

But it's all part of the show

Hey hey don't pretend to know me

You're just acting for the blow

Crowds are cheering

But it feels so fake

Every smile they give

Like icing on a cake

Underneath the surface

They're just playing games

In the spotlight's glare

They forget their own names

Oh hey hey you say you know me

But it's all part of the show

Hey hey don't pretend to know me

You're just acting for the blow

Behind the curtains

The truth is kept

No real connections

Just appearances they've prepped

You can't fool me

No matter your role

I'll dance to my beat

Keep my heart whole
