Duality
Just give me a second to explain myself,
to explain the me you see ain't myself
A facade so you'd like me,
came back to bite me
then you were gone
I shoulda been real with you I was wrong
so afraid to be different or strange
I assimilated to what I thought you’d like
I’d changed
so in all honesty you never honestly knew me
only the me i aspired to be
the me i LET you see
someone else
not myself
the I that was never I
the me that was never me
I loved you then, I love you now
but together could never be
its time for me,
as myself
