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
