Mask

My self image has washed away
All the plain lives are changing many ways
So remove your mask and show yourself
The colors shine through what shouldn't be there
So remove you mask and quit hiding yourself

The endless days of incompetence have not payed off
Your still alone and your still what you were before all this
Remove your mask and tell us a story
Without the lies and without the jury
The Judges who have never been judged at all
Fuck em all, and just tell us your story

Many a day has passed since you've been here
In my hands, In my arms, In my sight
To hold and love and trust in all of the above
Its been a many night I've lied alone
Awake in sweat, So bored to death, without you here again
To hold and hug and show you what love truly is

Just remove the mask that binds you in there
Tell me a story of why you even put it there
Just remove the mask that hides you in there
I'd like to see the real you, inside and out
I say what I want, when I want. It's freedom of fucking speech.

Sperm, It's in you to give.




I used to have something to say... now I'm just a caricature of who I was... it's sad, that the one piece of me I wanted for you, is nothing but a misrepresentation of everything I am.

    I like this one an awful lot.
    (I've come back to read it three days in a row!!)


    Why are you so different when you write in regular threads?

    this reminds me of Evacuation...

    "let's put aside your ego, let's crawl into your face, a vision raised or not raising, a frightful wake-you-up.... it's time for... "


    thx

    What do you mean "What?".....:p

    You behave like a cad many times when you tell earnest people to commit suicide.

    Then you write something like this which seems full of love. It's a wierd contrast!!

    That's the biggest misconception of myself ever.

    I just say what I feel needs to be said, if it be through a poem or if it's replying to a thread.

    I am not trying to contrast myself.

    I just say what I want, when I want.

    I liked your poem Funker (did anyone guess your name?)

    I like the ending verses a lot:

    Just remove the mask that binds you in there
    Tell me a story of why you even put it there
    Just remove the mask that hides you in there
    I'd like to see the real you, inside and out
    y la banda de Guille... cuando toca?
