Someone In Disguise

I see through your inked covered lies

It’s not so clever I can see behind your

Crystal eyes

Sometimes instead of your voice I’ll listen to the rain

It is what truly keeps me from going insane


Becoming one with my thoughts is more beautiful than sad

Unless if I drown along with the pitter patter -

Then it might become kinda bad

Yet I still want to figure out your story


There’s always a reason to the why

As there’s always a face to the who

I’ve known you for years

And I am still not sure if I know what to do

Do I trust someone who covers themselves up

With a personality that clearly doesn’t suit them

Do I hold your hand and say everything is okay?

When you do not do the same in return?


I watch from a distance as you shut the door

Behind you hide the key and I don’t see you anymore

It’s locked and people still try to knock it down

You block out the knocking so in your mind it doesn’t make a sound
