Personality Check

You’re always wearing shades so you can hide from the sun You’re always dancing with bullets because you can’t dodge the gun. You’re always speaking up so you can hide the lie You’re always whispering hello because you don’t get goodbye. You’re always one step behind so you can watch out You’re always giving in on hope because of the personal doubt. You’re always holding my hand so you can keep me close out of neurosis You’re always closing you eyes because you don’t like the diagnosis.
