Why do we smile when hurting inside?
Why grin and bear it when our dreams have died?
Why can we not laugh when something is funny?
Why don't I react to skies gray or sunny?
-
When I am moved, why don't I cry?
When I am tired, why don't I sigh?
Why can't I say, if I like what you've done?
Why must I pretend when I'm not having fun?
-
If you hurt my feelings, why can't I tell you?
To get my own way, why must I sell you?
Why don't I believe, when you tell me you care?
When I really need you, why are you not there?
-
When I see you hurting, why don't I reach out?
When we want affection, why do we shout?
If I want something, why can't I ask?
We're not who we seem, we all wear a mask.
