Do you know who you are…
Deep down inside…
Your true self revealed…
All the versions you hide…

The ones you keep close…
Allowing no one to see…
Hiding behind your mask…
Your inner personality…

Not the tough exterior…
The version you project…
To make people like you…
Whilst trying to forget…

What they would say…
If they saw the truth…
If they saw past it all…
Like some detective sleuth…

Investigating everything…
You have ever done…
Or ever been involved with…
Under life’s cruel sun…

And all the things you do…
Whilst nobodies looking…
From the highest of highs…
To the sour lemon sucking…

That leaves you on the floor…
So dark and depressed…
Hoping nobody notices…
In case they’re not impressed…

Passing instant judgement…
And in the blink of an eye…
Branding you forever…
As the one who lied…

One who will distort…
So fucking easily…
Using smoke and mirrors…
Not allowing them to see…

Just what you are…
Deep down inside…
The loser, the joker and the sinner…
And the rest that you hide…
