Your Sorry Disguise
Bravado's mask can hide only so long
In paper-mache that's come and gone
Seductive carnival casts careless debris
Your sorry disguise doesn't fool me
===========================
Pleasing the crowd you play along
Silent the beat of the hearts sad song
The truth ain't what they came to see
Your sorry disguise doesn't fool me
===========================
Revealing pain finds you don't belong
Feathers and glitter cover the wrong
Pretty pretense can't set you free
Your sorry disguise doesn't fool me
===========================
So, you paint on the face that mimics strong
Endow the illusions that serve to prolong
The deception from which you cannot flee
Your sorry disguise doesn't fool me
===========================
Obscurity shaped behind the cats-eyed oblong
That conceals and carries the blues bong
A surreal trip far away from who you be
Your sorry disguise doesn't fool me
===========================
