Lyrics Saving Face - Curbside

Saving Face

Don’t push me
I’ve been pushed around my whole life so now I know
How it feels to strum the last chord of your life and let it go
And how no one really cares but how they all act to relate
But you knew it all, and you’ll get it right
Because you’ve been watching this whole thing go wrong
Never once did you turn it down
Or ever had to hear the sound
Of anyone who would try to save face
I’m saving what’s left
Of scattered torn up pieces of a speech you once gave me
Saying we won’t live to know that we were wrong
We won’t live to be
Don’t trust me
I’ve been lied to my face as they look into my eyes
And they don’t seem to get worried when I do falsely reply
About how no one really cares but how they all act to relate
But you knew it all, and you’ll get it right
Because you’ve been lifting the whole weight
Silently waiting for someone to help you down
You’ve been working your whole life trying to get it right
In this mass-hysteria
And somehow I’m about to
If I could take every word back now
If I could spread these ashes down
Upon a world that’s never seen your face
Somehow that’s better than this one now
Never once did you turn it down
Or ever had to hear the sound
Of anyone who would try to save face
I’m saving what’s left
Of scattered torn up pieces of a speech you once gave me
Saying we won’t live to know that we were wrong
We won’t live to be
