	Story Behind the Song This song came out of an idea that some people's personalities change depending on who they are interacting with. People have different masks that they wear for friends, for parents, for co-workers. It might be intentional, or it might be a function of reacting to the other person's personality. This song is about the more sinister side of wearing masks. As the lyric says, "you see what I let you see." Lyrics You tell me that you know me. You say you understand. My heart is like a window, You see so clear. You're wrong, my dear. So very many people All live inside my head. You're never gonna meet them They all hide Way down inside. Like oil upon the water when the sun shines My colours changing every time you look. You say you know the person that I am when I'm with you, But you see what I let you see. You'll never really know me. You'll never know the truth. Kaleidoscopic people With many names. We're all the same. I'm different with my Mother. I change when you are near. I love you when you're with me But otherwise A new disguise. Like oil upon the water when the sun shines My colours changing every time you look. You say you know the person that I am when I'm with you But you see what I let you see. I won't say that I know you. I hardly scratch the skin. A million thoughts, a million dreams? I only know The things you show. So tell me that you love me But don't you be so proud To think you understand me And all the people that I sometimes choose to be to make myself complete. Like oil upon the water when the sun shines My colours changing every time you look. You say you love the person that I am when I'm with you But you see what I let you see. Only what I let you see. Only what I let you see.
