She Segregates Herself
She segregates herself from the rest of the world
Not wanting everyone to see the real her
As soon as she has company she puts on a smile
Pretends she is happy
Everyone believes it
She's such an actress
Once again a beautiful performance
Sometimes she manages to fool herself
Every now and again she comes unraveled
She becomes visible to the world
Everyone sees her for what she really is
Then she simply goes back to the stage
And carries on this act.
