Transparent - Hangnail

When you strip away the outside layer

Don’t act so surprised

There might be a face that you

Don’t even recognize

Don’t act so surprised

We’re living shallow lives

And the consequence is never

Knowing who we really are

We’ve nothing left to hide, transparent lives

There’s no disguise, transparent lives

What you see is what you get

It’s not forged or counterfeit

No foul motives harbor here

It’s strictly the sincere

Unafraid to be exposed

Can see right through the soul

You know you don’t have need for a show

I’ve found the conflict of all history

It’s desire verses rationality

It’s not as complex as it seems to be

Cause when you’re fighting yourself

There’s no way you can win

I don’t want to imitate or try to duplicate

A different personality

I’m trying to comprehend the point of fitting in

It’s such a tragic fallacy
