Face of Another |
| Well I made my bed, I left a note that said,"You'll find me in the ocean. |
| With the face of another, oh, I promise you brother — tomorrow will be a war" |
| At first glance, appearances mean nothing, but further down inside, |
| judgment and heartache await |
| And I for one have grown weary from speaking out |
| So close your mouth. |
| Don’t say a damn word |
| Just bask in the silence and pray for a small consequence |
| Lose all hopes of returning safe to the hell you call home |
| I will stain my arms with ink, and words that I would never speak |
| Cause everyone would be better off without me |
| Hold your breath, baby — your transmission’s out of key |
| A subtle way to strap anchors to my body |
| I’m too tired to compromise. |
| it feels like a thousand knives penetrating |
| They’re deep inside, so salt my wounds and show me that I’m alive |
| Cause everything I feel has started fading |
| And here comes the tide, my grave awaits. |
| this is truly genocide |
| Too many men have fallen just like me |
| I will stain my arms with ink, and words that I would never speak |
| Cause everyone would be better off without me |
| Hold your breath, baby — your transmission’s out of key |
| A subtle way to strap anchors to my body |
| This broadcast is dead, no frequency heard |
| I will return to Mother Earth |
| As the air escapes, and my soul leaves my body |
| For a lonely grave |
| No time to talk, no time for words |
| Failed attempts to feel alive have left me barren and my journey ends tonight |
| This broadcast is dead, this broadcast is dead |
| And this is how it has to end |
