Without a Face
I am without a face
A faceless man without a name
And as I fall from my throne
You’re the only one that stays the same
Becoming what I should have been
Sinning when only I could sin
And as I fall from my place
I am put in the book of the lifeless
My nothing face next to my nothing name
No one really ever wins the game
We just play it to live
And live to play this never ending mind fuck
In the end we all love the dirt
We all get stuck being nothing at all
While somewhere someone is laughing
Laughing at what we are
I could get angry
But anger only ever got me so far
Here I am
Without my broken face
I’ve lost my nameless label
And I’ve done all I’ve ever wanted
But I don’t think I’m able
To laugh it off and look the other way
I want to tear out my eyes
And drown them in the hateful thoughts
From within my mind
So come away with me
To a place without any of this
And if that place doesn’t exist
We’ll make it all up
We’ll shove it in their faces
And make them eat it until they fall apart
Make them drink it until they can’t breathe
When we’ve killed off all the cattle
And when we’ve killed off all the sheep
We can lay our head to rest
We can lie down to die
Just you and I.
