Fake You

C’mon why are you so disloyal to yourself?

Sometimes you make me want to tear your masks

and save you from your spurious identity.

Don't you see that pretentious people have a false image to preserve,

whilst real people don’t give a toss?

Sorry I can't help you this time. Only you can restore your sanity.
