On the Surface

On the surface everything seems right

Nobody notices the dimness of the light

For everybody outside our smiles are so bright

On the surface everybody seems all right

We've got the grace of actors on the stage

We orchestrate the moves that complement the play

The things that we believe in, we just throw them all away

On the surface everything's okay

What are you thinking tonight, I don't know you

And it seems like you don't know me

My words disappear in the night

And there's no one there to notice

Maybe our lives will never be the same

But we can face tomorrow if we can just get through today

I'm holding back the tears while you're pushing me away

On the surface all seems okay

On the surface all seems okay

If you don't look too close, all seems okay

On the surface all seems okay

On the surface

On the surface

On the surface...
