Face To The Wall

Was I farther from your conscience

Standing face to the wall?

I suspected there was something

That you weren't telling me

And last night I learned the reason for it all

I was looking through your window

Saw you kissing someone else

You reached up and turned my picture slowly

Face to the wall

Face to the wall

So you wouldn't have to see

Anything at all

To make you think of me

Did the cheapness of the moment

Make you feel ashamed and small?

Was I farther from your conscience

Standing face to the wall?

Alone out in the darkness were the eyes that worshiped you

As you cheated me I watched my idle fall

With your arms around another and his lips where mine should be

Then I saw you turned my picture slowly

Face to the wall

Face to the wall

So you wouldn't have to see

Anything at all

To make you think of me

Did the cheapness of the moment

Make you feel ashamed and small?

Was I farther from your conscience

Standing face to the wall?
