You can’t fool me, as I’ll always know
Your compliments are all too shallow
Your lips, each word appears intact
But from your eyes, there’s no contact
Your smile protrudes through gritted teeth,
As if there’s anger underneath
Although your arms are open wide
Your feet do shift from side to side
You cross your arms when questions flow
There are some things only you should know
You seem so calm, but your voice a quiver
Your hands are shaking like a leaf in a river
You can’t fool me.
