Faces

I once used to be just like you

I used to care for things that didn't matter

And I wouldn't? Mind what I do

I would still believe that things got better

But there came a day when all this changed

Where all of my life was rearranged

Without a warning or a sign

Taken away what once was mine

Don't try, don't waste your time

Long before you feel it

It will start to blow your mind

Decide, before you grow old

If you want to get there, be there, stay

Where you were told

I don't really know why I'm here

Maybe there is someone who can tell me

There are days when I see so clear

When I know what people think around me

Even if I do not know their names

I can sense all their pains

All of the dreams they have inside

All of the fears they try to hide

Don't try, don't waste your time

Long before you feel it

It will start to blow your mind

Decide, before you grow old

If you want to get there, be there, stay

Where you were told

I see a painting on the wall

Showing exactly what I feel

Showing exactly what I feel

How could it know?

I look at faces in a hall

I see the stories that they hold

I see the stories that they hold

Passing me by
