My Second Face

My Second Face was written to express the inner turmoil between the person that I feel that I am supposed to be and the secret part of me that is hidden deep inside.

Lyrics

So why do I care what you think?
I don't fit your mould and I'll never fit in
I'm still trying to be who I think I should be
Don't want you to know that I'm not who I seem

But there's two of us sharing my brain
It gets confusing sometimes 'cause we're not the same
I'm kinder than her - she's far crueller than me
While we both live inside, I'm the only one you see

I seem eager to please, so dependable and polite
But that's only because I hide her from sight
And I'll put on my best smile while I'm biting my tongue
So my two faces appear as just one

There's two of us sharing my brain
It gets confusing sometimes 'cause we're not the same
I'm kinder than her - she's far crueller than me
While we both live inside, I'm the only one you see

I know that she's there deep inside
I feel her watching this world through her cynical eyes
Taste the sneer on her lips feel her contemptuous mind
She's free from your chains she refused to be tied

By your petty rules and your dangerous lies
And she'll walk her own path disregarding your signs
But when I start to believe that I can be as strong
In the blink of an eye she's gone

There's two of us sharing my brain
It gets confusing sometimes 'cause we're not the same
I'm kinder than her - she's far crueller than me
While we both live inside, I'm the only one you see

But just when I believe that I can be as strong
In the blink of an eye she's gone​
