Who are you and what I think.
Who are you when you're alone?
Thoughtful and introspective, remembring wrongs?
Wishing redemption,
for all you have sewn?

Or are you courageous and strong?
Courage the fountain,
from which you draw strength.
A way of life, cant be called wrong.

Are you afraid?
Weak and cowardly?
Praying all your wrongs,
will never be repaid?

Do you wish for power?
Wanting control over all.
Hoping that quite soon,
will come your shining hour?

Are you full of quit?
Never try never fail.
Did you sacrifice your strength?
Long since dull your wit?

Are you indomitable?
A strong spirit always plows through.
Beating down walls becouse they're there?
Your mind warped and abominable?

Or are you weak?
Never broken but still worthless.
Bending as the wind blows?
Forever to be meek?

And is who you are when your alone,
The same person?
when thrown in with others,
is your true self known?

Or are you changed,
to suit the others?
Is your facade,
carefully arranged?

If this is so then I disown.
All you are is poison.
I'll spit you out between my lips,
and leave behind all we've known.

No matters whats inside,
at least its the true you.
There is never any reason,
to ever, ever hide.

No matter whats inside.
Speak who you are and som'll listen.
But all you know will leave you,
if i find you lied.
