A Tale of 2 Citiez


I have a face for every person
None of which is the same
I switch back and forth al the time
I most definitely forgotten who the real me is

I hide secrets
I hide in shame
I hide the hate that builds in me

I always stay to myself

And when people question,

A different tale comes about


I lie to people
and then walk away
so they don't see the truth.

These people I am are just facades
that I trade and swap at every place
what i would give to turn back time
and to find out which city I'm in
