There's this girl who seems to be strong
No one ever noticed that there's something wrong
'Cause she wears different masks every single day
To hide the pain in her beautiful face

Fake smiles, fake laughs are the things she always does
No one heard her making a fuss
In front of everyone she's tough
But when she's alone all she can do is laugh

Laugh at her own foolishness
For being in such a mess
Sleeping everynight, crying
And waking up with tears, drying

Behind the mask is a fragile heart
That was been hurt and torn apart
Tired of all the things in life
Feeling numb and slowly dying inside

Everyone listen, here's an advice
Always look at someone's eyes
'Cause no matter how hard they try to hide
Always remember, Eyes can never lie

A lot of people say they're okay
But I guess no they're not, they just don't want you to be dismayed
Be sensitive to the people around you
Help them and make them feel anew

Take this girl as an example
That some people are vulnerable
Treat them just right
And love them for the rest of your life

And for you girl,
You are a pearl
Stop pretending and say that you're fine
When you know deep down, everything's not right

How can you feel that you're loved and accepted?
If in the first place, you are already afraid of being rejected?
Try to open up your heart
You will know that you're not just alone from the start

There's someone who's always there with you
And He's right up there, watching and protecting you
By the time you know Him, you'll no longer ask
'Cause only God can see you under your mask
