Mr. Hyde
If you could only see
the darker, ugly side of me
Dr. Jekyll’s the only one you see
but there’s a Mr. Hyde in me
This other person I try to hide
breaks me into insanity
When my lightness
subsides into my darkness
The only one around for me
is the Mr. Hyde in me
Why won’t you believe
there’s a darker side to me?
Why can’t you see
my life is not always
fun and fancy free?
Slipping into my
alter-ego,
my other personality
Mr. Hyde is the one
that will be the death of me
He’s raging inside
breaking me down
I can’t wake up
he brings me down
When I speak of this ugly side
you say it is merely fallacy
I swear one day
when the world’s around
he won’t subside
and then you’ll all meet Mr. Hyde
