Now you see me
Now you don't
A little bit of truth here
A little bit there
But everyone does it
To save our reputation
Hiding under our masks
Hiding ourselves
No one knowing the real you
Still trying to judge
Why make fun of other's insecurities
When you have your own
She may starve herself
He may be abused
How would you feel if they found out
About you and your problems
