Headgear, headwear or headdress is the name given to any element of clothing which is worn on one's head.
Headgear serve a variety of purposes:
Bonnets, as worn by women and girls, were hats worn outdoors which were secured by tying under the chin, and often which had some kind of peak or visor. Some styles of bonnets had peaks so large that they effectively prevented women from looking right or left without turning their heads. Bonnets worn by men and boys are generally distinguished from hats by being soft and having no brim—this usage is now rare (they would normally be called caps today, except in Scotland where the "bunnet" is common in both civilian life and in the Royal Regiment of Scotland).
Caps are generally soft and often have no brim or just a peak (like on a baseball cap). For many centuries women wore a variety of head-coverings which were called caps. For example, in the 18th and 19th centuries a cap was a kind of head covering made of a flimsy fabric such as muslin; it was worn indoors or under a bonnet by married women, or older unmarried women who were "on the shelf" (e.g. mob-cap). An ochipok is part of traditional Ukrainian costume.
My lust, your fright
Your love, my sore
My wish, your deepest scar
My warmth, your shelter
Your smile, my sickness
My demands will never stop
You belong to me
Come make all of my dreams get lost
In your salvation
Your weakness is the fuel of my desire
I wanna take you with me to
my inner wonderland
You´ll see a dark and beautiful world
Of pleasure and sacrifice
There´s no escape
I´ll convert you in a prisoner
Of my unfair desire
Come and see through my clear
Mirror of tears
Come make all of my dreams get lost
In your salvation
Your weakness is the fuel of my desire
Come make the darkness close the door
To your own freedom
You´ll be the prisoner of a lonely soul
Translucent eyes will lead you down
To my scars
You will feel the rage behind
