Lyrics

On the surface, everything seems right
Nobody notices the dimness of the light
Everybody outside, our smiles are so bright
On the surface, everything seems alright
We've got the grace of actors on the stage
We orchestrate the movement that complement the play
The things that we believe in seems we've just thrown them 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
Oh, my words disappear in the night
There ain't nobody there to notice
Maybe our lives will never be the same
We can face tomorrow
But honey, we gotta get through today
I'm holding back the tears
And at the same time you're pushing me away
On the surface, oh, she's okay
On the surface, oh, she's okay
If you don't look through those
Oh, she's okay
On the surface, oh, she's okay
On the surface
On the surface
On the surface
On the surface
On the surface
On the surface
