No one ever sees the real you
They see you reflected through their eyes
An experience colored by their worldview
And once they’ve decided what you are
Nothing will ever change their minds
So don’t try
Don’t pull down the mask
Don’t open the gates and let them in
They’ll only let you down
Because all they know is the vision
They formed of their own devices
And the real, true sight
Will send them reeling
Just keep your mouth shut
The facade in place
And let them see what they want
Nothing good will come of showing them anyway
