The Man Outside
Outside I laugh
Inside I cry
Outside is truth
Inside I lie
Outside is happy
Inside is sad
Outside I'm calm
Inside I'm mad
Am I really the man outside?
Or is it in me the real man hides?
Outside is sunshine
Inside is gloom
Outside is hope
Inside is doom
Outside I'm brave
Inside I fear
Outside is laughter
Inside a tear
Am I really the man outside?
Or is it in me the real man hides?
