Strangeface

The lines are all shut down

And your eyes are turned away

I can tell I'm getting nowhere

With the words I say

Words falling on deaf ears

As you dream of something new

I know you're going nowhere

And nothing I can do

Nobody promised you life in hell

You're not dreaming

You whispered for someone to help

Now you're screaming

Now, I see the loss in your eyes

I know the hows and the whys

I've seen the lows and the highs

This strangeface staring at me

You would never believe me

Thought the truth was for other ones

Look for solace in your use

And find another one

Clouds weeping tears of rain

Someday you'll feel the sun

Can't wash away the pain for you

The forgotten one

Hanging over rocks below

Cold wind blowin'

Covering tracks left in the snow

No one knowing

Now, I see the loss in your eyes

I know the hows and the whys

I've seen the lows and the highs

This strangeface staring at me

Nobody could see through

What you had turned into

You're reclusive, elusive, abusive

The truth is you're lying, crying, denying, and dying

Now, I see the loss in your eyes

I know the hows and the whys

I've seen the lows and the highs

This strangeface staring at me

A stranger lives in your eyes

The web you've spun out of lies

The time has passed for goodbyes

This strangeface you despise.
