Too Many Faces

I have too many faces,
Which one do you know?
Cover up, cover up.
Hide away the true me.

Depression crept in,
Long ago.
Now I’m wondering,
Do I have long to go.
World rocked, mind trashed.
Thrown under the bus by life.
Betrayed by my own head.
But I’ll just

Cover up, cover up.
Hide away the true me.
I wear too many faces for one,
Does anyone know the real me.
I guess it’s my fault, always has been.
Thought nobody cared, so I pretended.
Cover up, cover up.
This face will keep me safe,
From those who I meet.
But they won’t keep me safe,
From my own destruction.

A new face might keep me safe,
From the psychosis, it chases me.
Hunts me in my sleep, in my dreams.
Crushing my hopes and prayers.
But I’ll never escape my doom,
Escape my terrors.
If I don’t face her jaws,
With my own skin.

But still I just,
Cover up, cover up.
Hide myself away.
Might just take my issues,
6 feet down to my grave.
Buried in the depths,
With my stone cold heart.

So, cover up, cover up.
Hide away the true me.
I wear too many faces for one,
Does anyone know the real me.
I guess it’s my fault, always has been.
Thought nobody cared, so I pretended.
Cover up, cover up.
This face will keep me safe,
From those who I meet.
But they won’t keep me safe,
From my own destruction.
