A Veiled Glimpse

You can change your life to live some ideal But you can't really change what you are You can smile at their ways and play their games for real But your scars will always remain where they are You can live the dream but is it really your scene That's no way to find out who you are You can live a lie, mask your soul 'till you die If you're scared of the person you are Do you ever really know Do you ever really show Do you ever give everything that you are Or is like a crescent Moon A broken sight of full bloom A veiled glimpse of the core of your star Does your reflection ever give you a sight Deep behind your eyes To what remains wise and never lies About the nature of what you are
