This face

This face you see

Ain’t really me

It can make you laugh

But you’ll probably cry

It can give you half

But that’s a lie

Deep down in my empty heart

The only part with substance

Is the one that makes a husband

Beat his wife

And a teenage gangsta

Take a life

You know that empty shell

That sends you to Hell

That’s me

And this is the face you see.
