Put Off the Scent

Are you of the kind
Who use to leave yourself
Temporarely
Transform into someone else
Are you of the kind
Who’s got a face on each side
A split personality
Whose only truth is lie
You might have been — where I’ve been
You might have seen — just what I’ve seen
But you didn’t go where I went
You were just put off the scent
What would it take for you to realize
That you’re following a fool
You think you’re a part of something
But you are merely a tool
Are you of the kind
Who can say nothing in a million ways
Embellishment will never conquer
The beauty that the ugly truth portrays
You might have been — where I’ve been
You might have seen — just what I’ve seen
But you didn’t go where I went
You were just put off the scent
What would it take for you to realize
That you’re following a fool
You think you’re a part of something
But you are merely a tool
