Lyrics Silverstein

Silverstein

Face of the Earth

They take our pictures as Angels and Kings

We’re all pretending we’re someone

One percenters or stars to be, jewels of the Midwest

It’s always taken the best of me

Locked it away

and broke the key to this house of stairs

and misery At the bottom displaced me

Fake and make no hesitation

Secretly hoping this will be the last time

Break, despise our desperation

Secretly wishing we fell off the face of the earth

Off the face of the earth

The ice is running through my veins

I can’t feel a thing

Emotionless as I bring you down with me

We both take advantage

In my dreams, brakes are failing as I’m losing all my teeth

I can’t breathe, fingers stretching out and pointing at me

In my dreams, I’m falling even faster, dying in my sleep

Off the face of the earth

(And make no hesitation)

I fell off the face of the earth
