Your Deepest Darkest Dreams
United States

facade, mask, cloak, camouflage, veil

it doesent matter what you call it

we all have one

what matters is how deep you are inside that blanket of mystery

 

the me you see isn’t the me at all

it’s the me I want you to see

because if it were up to me i'd let you see

what its like to be me

 

the mask isn’t for me its for you

i hide my dark secrets and ill intentions

you don’t know

what its like to be me

 

my shallowest thoughts

are your deepest dreams

you cant compare who you are, to

what its like to be me

 

my mind is overcome by darkness

it's Hades world in here

the snake that led to the end of Adam and Eve sits at my right ear, that’s

what its like to be me

 

if my mask were ever removed

you’d cower in fear

because im not from here

you don’t know what its like to be me
