Stretch Arm Strong - Faces lyrics

rate me

all these faces come and go

happy places we once knew

have been lost and died

I want to open my heart wide

you won't feel so all alone

but I'll try

I'll try to take you home

watching the world pass us by

we keep on running, we keep on running

the air escapes me now

so where are they now?

two years on and they're all gone

we keep on running, we keep on running

where are they now?

words seem to useless now

have you forgotten how this made you feel?

all these faces come and go

happy places we once knew

have been lost and died

what if I told you that we were better off this way

and that the air was clearer because of the change

the mood has shifted

the weight has lifted

no signs of decay

now the truth is nearer

because of the change

your words are dead and useless now

have you forgotten how?

let's just say we've run our course

no need to argue or question the source

let's just say we've run our course

no need to argue or question the source

growing old but not in age

you lost your fire

you lost your rage

maybe you never had it at all

words scribbled on a page

seem so useless in this day and age

nothing means nothing any more

all these faces come and go

happy places we once knew

have been lost and died
