Not What It Seems

Is it really fake?

The way we smile on the web and pretend things are great

They way we search for the lost relationship we know we won't get back

But in the the curves of the letters we can act like it's okay

Pretend that those years weren't lost and that you were there

Because photos speak a 1,000 words and they're everywhere

On the web it may seem like its peachy keen and that we always had a love that was true.

But the truth lies in what's unseen

And there's nothing to change so for now I'm threw.
