Behind Guarded Eyes

Just a simple smile Its amazing what you can hide Its so easy to pretend With everyone so blind Just a few small words Its all so fake Am I living in a nightmare? Or am I awake? Its hard to say How I really feel Is it a misunderstanding? Or is it real? Who to trust Its hard to be sure Who will care? Im confused once more Deep within the soul The truth lies Hidden from the world Behind guarded eyes.
