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
