Face Me

(album: Swan Song - 2021)

Do you see the scales on me?
Feeble tongue, or hues of green?
I don't feel like catching prey
But I don't feel like anything

I sit in my head
Stray from the truth
Pick at the scabs, don't look at the past
Got something to lose
But I feel the tension from every direction
It's my reflection
I correct 'em, don't even mention
You can't fix my soul, my crutch, my home
Feed it but it's best just left alone
My dear, my foe, my holy ghost
Never gave a damn 'til it's face was shown

Your face was shown
(Is it something you wanna do?)
(Is it something you wanna do?)
Your face was shown
(Is it something you wanna do?)
(Is it something you wanna do?)

So just face me, I can make a change
So maybe just chase me, 'cause I can make a change

Do you see despair on me?
I've cut close ones carelessly
Some have passed and most don't change
But when I go I leave them peace
I don't wanna be the love you prevail from
I don't wanna be the waves in your sea
I was never pegged as one you'd depend on
But that changed when your face was shown

(Is it something you wanna do?)
(Is it something you wanna do?)
Your face was shown
(Is it something you wanna do?)
(Is it something you wanna do?)

So just face me, I can make a change
So maybe just chase me, 'cause I can make a change

(My baby loves me, my baby loves me)
(My baby loves me, my baby loves)

Do you wanna feel what I felt?
I stayed awake for days in this hell
And what I paid for my sin would bring most men straight to their end
Straight to their end
Till your face was shown

(Is it something you wanna do?)
(Is it something you wanna do?)
Your face was shown
(Is it something you wanna do?)
(Is it something you wanna do?)

So just face me, I can make a change
So maybe just chase me, 'cause I can make a change
