Most people say
The camera doesn’t lie
But others say it does
What is the answer
What should I believe
When you’re pissed off at the world
But the camera shows a smile
And twinkling eyes
When you’re trying not to break
But the camera shows a confident teenager
Is the camera lying
Or is it just me
Maybe if we look close enough at the
Little screen
If we look into their eyes
Can we see the hurt and pain
Or do we just choose to ignore it?
