answer if you care to.

who do you take yourself to be--
do you feel others perceive you that way?

are you clever enough to mislead people about
who you are?

that is, to build a facade on a personal basis, by person.

do you ever hide your true feelings?
if so, why?

who do you take yourself to be to me?
do you wish i took you another way?

Assuming you have a good reason for asking (and I do), I'll try.

who do you take yourself to be-- Now, that one would take a long time, and, of course, is the one everyone would be least willing to answer. Still, here's the Cliff Notes of the Cliff Notes; I am the sins of my father, the blood and body of my mother and her father, a collection of personalities I have seen in books that made me want to be them or Love them, having guns pulled on me as a child, being hated for how I looked or being too smart, and free of what any theology would want me to be. Confused and confusing desires and usually failed relationships with people with whom I shouldn't associate in the first place. Fuck it; I am the music to a song whose lyrics haven't been finished. Or, to get really obtuse, I am an as yet unspecified note in the music to a song which cannot yet be sung, but has long been written. Yeah, that is really obtuse
