You keep saying that you're doing fine,
but the pressure's building, you've almost lost your mind
Gotta keep up the show, don't wan't no one to know
that you're hiding, but the fire's gone out of your eyes
The fire's gone out of your eyes and you hide it with lies
People pretend not to see past your false alibis
You've got a one-way mirror, you only see what you want to see
You can avoid confrontation, you're always quick to agree
When they look in your face try your best to erase that distant vision,
'cause the fire's gone out of those eyes
The fire's gone out of your eyes and you hide it with lies
People pretend not to see past your false alibis
Throw off the blinders you wear so you can recongize
that the fire's gone out of your eyes and you hide behind lies
