Your Ignorance

You ask me if I had a good day

I could say yes in ten different languages

But you'd only need to speak one

To tell me that I'm lying

But you say nothing

You smile and tell me about your life

How happy you are and how normal you are

And I can't relate

You ask what I've done today

I cried, contemplated dying, lay in bed

But I tell you "oh, nothing much"

Still you smile and nod

It seems like you can't see my lies

You don't need to speak any language

To be able to open your eyes.
