2 face



As I look in the mirror I see a face

Neither a smile a grin nor a trace  

Of the perfect life we all portray

That we fake every single day



I know my insides are filled with doubt

And I’m sure that it all wants out

But not today for the show goes on

Of the perfect life we that has drawn



Drawn away from the truth filled with lies

As I look in the mirror I see a disguise

But it’s neither a mask, costume nor a cape

But simply someone else trying to escape



From deep inside my imagination

I can’t resist the simple temptation

To change my thoughts and what I do

For the old me will have to bid you adieu



And as I look at myself slowly change

I notice a feeling that is quite strange

Who am I? Is there a reason for this?

Has my soul fallen into the abyss?



My life in shambles

My body gambles

With the truth inside

But the truth will hide



Beneath the lies and stories

Stowed away in inventories

The twists and turns will never end

I’m sure there’s no way I can defend



The choices I’ve made will haunt me forever

When I look in the mirror I’m sure I will never

See my real face again for I’m dead inside

Becuase The true me has been cast aside
