the cover - johniepee lyrics

[chorus]
look in my eyes
try to see the other side
of me i hide
you’ll only see the cover
for the longest time
n0body’s seen beyond the walls
i hide behind
you’ll only see the cover

[verse 1]
yeah, ayy
have you ever had one of those days?
everything you had was shattered, now it’s all in maze
in all the rage and pain, feel it course in your veins
you think n0body’s got it harder than you
well think again, kid, buckle up
thinking everybody’s sorted, so you run amuck, act like you don’t give a -bleep-
you’re not the only one thinking you’re the only one
acting fine your only hope, but keep it cloaked like obi wan
gr-ss is greener, so enhanced by a mask, a means of
keepin it dark, in that vast demeanour
a rich man driving past in the fastest beamer
he would trade it for a second if his past would leave him
or that bright eyed beauty, crack a smile when i greet her
but when she’s home you’d never know it that her partner
would beat her, it’s all her story that’s it’s normal ’cause her father would beat her
she wanna leave it, but her schema keeps her parting with freedom, you don’t know

[chorus]
look in my eyes
try to see the other side
of me i hide
you’ll only see the cover
for the longest time
n0body’s seen beyond the walls
i hide behind
you’ll only see the cover

[verse 2]
see that fella on the way to work you told, “get f-cked”
he was already barely coping, ’cause they just broke up
and he was holding it together, maybe even by a tether
now he’s pedal to the metal, wanna fill straight up
he don’t say much, so people think he’s fine but it’s faux
his hero p-ssed away the other night, but never would show
you never would know of the trauma that he never let go
and he’s in traffic he can hack it, what an average joe
see that lady on the corner in them raggedy clothes
she wasn’t always living here, but there’s a habit she chose
she liked to burn a little something, get away from the ghosts
that still inhabit her mind from the time, he grabbed on her [?]
far too painful to recollect
so it’s always the same when she get a cheque
in another life she had the house, cars, had it all to a t
but now her demons hold her captive and she’s home on the street, you don’t know

[chorus]
won’t you
look in my eyes
try to see the other side
of me i hide
you’ll only see the cover
for the longest time
n0body’s seen beyond the walls
i hide behind
you’ll only see the cover

[bridge]
never judge a book
by the cover, the cover
you think you know but you don’t know
the other side
we walk around and pick apart each other
whoah-oh
but if you paid attention
you might see it in my eyes

[chorus (extended)]
look in my eyes
try to see the other side
of me i hide
you’ll only see the cover
for the longest time
n0body’s seen beyond the walls
i hide behind
you’ll only see the cover
look in my eyes
try to see the other side
of me i hide
you’ll only see the cover
for the longest time
n0body’s seen beyond the walls
i hide behind
you’ll only see the cover

[outro]
don’t be fooled by
what i’ve got, or
’cause you’ve seen me
smiling
