Two of me
Sometimes I feel there are two of me
One thats good and true to thee
Then there's that other side of me
That loves to fight maliciously
To bring up things that we'd laid to rest
To drag us through that horrible mess
To bring fresh tears to your eyes

When I love to smell your scent on me
When your wants come before my needs
Then I start those evil deeds
I plant some doubt inside your head
and I make you question all I said

Or is that Satan in your ear
I sit here now and wonder why

I'm not evil, I just can't be
So why is this such a part of me
Whenever smiles touch my day
I start to feel you need to pay
The tears of confusion on my face
When you finally walk away
So I need to figure out desperately
What the hell is wrong with me?

Why is that? you asked.

They come in different hues
They have various thicknesses
Most amongst us make their use
With finesse

Slowly he unraveled
bandages of facades
and bravely peeled apart
the cracked layers
of his contrived persona,
