Knowing You

We don't know you
We look and there's a mask
And what's beneath?
None of us have the courage to ask
Come out and play, say what you want to say
We want to meet who's underneath
It's all we're interested in

You smile, you play the part
It's part of your magic art
But all we see is a facade
And we feel we're just being played
(No one likes being played)

We think we probably like you
If we just felt that we got through
Maybe than we could know for sure
But we don't know what the hiding's for
(We're scared what it's for)

Do you like us, do you care?
Do you pretend we're not there?
Are we people you just tolerate?
In your world where do we rate?
(when we leave do you celebrate?)

We don't know you
We look and there's a mask
And what's beneath?
None of us have the courage to ask
Come out and play, say what you want to say
We want to meet who's underneath
It's all we're interested in
