You’ve never come close to seeing what I’ve always had to face.
Image blatant and obvious — what’s there more to assess?
Never looking beyond the frontal — all your present fears.
I hope to never be caught again by visions too clear.
Erase it, deface it, conceal it.
Just take it for the face value — concealment, nonetheless.
Just take it for the face value — you never know what you may get.
A wise man carried on about what you see is what you get.
I’ve peeled off covers, revealing what I want to forget.
Why not go base yourself on simple visages?
Scarring the complexion or scratching the surface.
