I Put on a Face.

I put on a face
The one that people see
I use it every place
The one that keeps me free.

I put on an act
That all around me see
They don�t know the fact
Of the person who is me.

I put on a show
True me hides deep inside
True friends are ones who know
The person that I hide.

I�m tired of the play
Some days it�s really hard
To be the image on display
That is so on the card.

I�m tired of the lie
So this I say to you
The ones who seem so high
May be so low it�s true.

Now the face is gone
Shining through is the true me
My dark side has finally won
For this moment it will be.

But soon new day will break
The face will come on back
But for all others sake
The face I will not lack.
