I saw the change in your eyes,
As I changed from Blake,
to a Mormon guy.
I thought, this wasn't right.
Before I was a person,
now I am covered with ignorant night.
Before you said hello and smiled,
now your greeting is hollow,
and your excitment mild.
I have not changed a fiber,
I'm still the same ole' boy,
But how can I be a liar.
How can I deny my faith,
What horrible thing is asked.
Why would I withdraw my face,
When asked about my past.
Should I become a sculpture,
And shape myself each day.
That is not what I hoped'for.
I hoped I was what I say.
I hoped I was a real person.
I hoped I was a single being.
Now the situation will worsen,
as you turn to blanket me.
I guess I will have to smile,
as you turn your intuition away.
I will not meet you with guile,
As I enter the fray.
As I face the duty,
of being an example today.
Please God, please root for me.
As my face is replaced.
I am still me, you know me.
But I would rather them see your face.
I'd rather them feel your love,
not mine.
I'd rather them look above,
then to me.
I'm thankful I am your child,
I'm thankful for what I have.
But don't you; Ally, feel a bit odd,
when you miss my face?
Don't replace me Ally,
Why do you miss my soul?
I am just a peice,
not a carbon-copy of the whole.
I know I'm an emissary,
Just a little reluctant to accept the role,
But I beleive in this work,
With every bit of my soul.
So bless me in my weakness,
Make my soul stand strong.
Because no matter how I look,
If I serve you,
I can't go wrong.
