Do You Really Know Who I Am

You've seen me by a million names, You've read all about my pain, but do you understand me? Do you know who I really am? My head is pounding slightly, Sometimes I lose my eyesight, my body likes to destroy me. It doesn't much care who I am. My tears slide down my cheeks, my knees are actin pretty weak, but do you really know me? My home life is a mess, I fall in love deeply and get depressed, I speak in flowing words as if everything were nature, My eyes are ever changing, untrusting and availing, leading me down whatever path I must, I've been a broken doll, I've been a caged animal, A million different things, But do you really know me Im faceless, Ever changing in your dreams
