The performance is convincing
I know they'll soon discover
Is there anyone that falls?
If I make them all believe it, maybe I'll believe it too
Are we happy plastic people
So, everyone will see me the way that I see them
With walls around our weakness
But if the invitation's open
To every heart that has been broken
Are there any hands to raise?
And we know every line by heart
To every heart that has been broken
And smiles to hide our pain?
Songwriters: Mark Hall, Nichole Nordeman
And smiles to hide our pain?
With walls around our weakness
Is there anyone that fails?
Is there anyone that fails?
In the altar for a stage?
'Cause when I take a look around
Maybe then we close the curtain
Everybody seems so strong
On our stained glass masquerade
And smiles to hide our pain?
Maybe then we close the curtain
To every heart that has been broken
Or would you walk away?
Feelin' so small?
But if the invitation's open
Is there anyone who's been there?
With walls around our weakness
Only when no one is watching
Under shiny plastic steeples
Under shiny plastic steeples
Am I the only one who's traded
If I dared to let you see
Feelin' so small?
Am I the only one in church today

That you imagine me to be?
Would the love of Jesus
Can we really fall apart
The truth behind the person
But if the invitation's open
Are we happy plastic people
Under shiny plastic steeples
On our stained glass masquerade
Be enough to make you stay?
Would your arms be open?
But would it set me free
Am I the only one in church today
Maybe then we close the curtain
On our stained glass masquerade
Is there anyone that falls?
That I don't belong
So I tuck it all away, like every thing's okay
Are we happy plastic people
So, with a painted grin, I play the part again
