by all the masters it's been said
life as we see it is not real but - instead,
though hard to admit - just an illusion
the way i see you, the way you see me
just an illusion
and so is what we do and what we see
merely under cover,
but how to remove this cover?
what would it prove anyway, my brother?
it could prove that all i put on you
all guilt, failure and blame
is merely a reflection of my own
there is no shame
to see what is shown
by the mirror i call you
it could prove that all i see
in you and others
is nothing else but me
under cover(s)
there's no better
but rather different
right or wrong is not the matter
rather different!
under cover?
please, no longer!
