Camouflage

I'm an open book
That you don't wanna read
When I try plant the tree
You throw away the seed

Sometimes I feel invisible
A chameleon in the trees
Sometimes I feel invisible
Though I am seen

I have a camouflage
But I don't wanna hide
What you see is a mirage
Don't want this design

Do you know me?
Well you think you do
Figured out my personality?
Am I just a fool?

Think I'm as soft as cream?
Do you know my dreams
KP is too clean
Nothing is what it seems

Sometimes when you see me smile
The smile is actually upside down
But after the refracted light hits your retina
It turns that imagine right around

I'm an open book
That you don't wanna read
When I try plant the tree
You throw away the seed

See I just want someone
To really know me
So I leave clues for anyone
So that they clearly see

Because

I find it difficult most of the time
To say what's really on my mind
So I'll quote a song or paint a rhyme
So it can be ours instead of mine

Cause if it's only mine
I'll stand alone
And as we ingest time
You won't see me grow

And if you'll never know
It will be impossible you see
For true friendship to grow
Between you and me

Don't think that I dont know
What you like to say and do
"KP is too soft
To handle the truth
So I would rather lie
or hide the truth
Than watch his heart break in two"

I am not weak
I am strong
Be honest with me
Our friendship will last long

I'm an open book
That you don't wanna read
When I try plant the tree
You throw away the seed

Don't judge this book
By its cover
Take a closer look
There is so much to discover

A guy who smiles
Despite insecurities and fears
Braves through trials
Constantly holding back tears

A guy who finds beauty
In the little things
Will act a lil goofy
To ease tension strings

A guy who loves to share
Forgives and restarts
Because when I care
I do so with all my heart

I'm an open book
I just want you to read
Take a closer look
And see the real me

But If you have no interest in me
Or what I love to do
I'll leave you be
And won't have any in you
