"Hey," they say.
"Hey," you reply.
"How are you?" they ask.
"How are you?" you ask.
You knit a brand new façade!
A façade to interact.
A façade to mingle.
A façade to please.
"Who am I?" you question.
Lost yourself in the act!
Your identity crumbles at the mention;
You're no one, that's a fact.
Ooh, you laugh!
Crazed―you haven't got a clue.
A personality; of which you don't even have a half.
Because you've spent every portion of it for others to chew!
Every face anew―
Another person you appease to.
Time's running out, the deadline's due!
So, who are you?
