Faceless
That night, the dirt on my hands, it didn't wash away
Standing there in front of the mirror, desperately scratching it off my fingertips
I felt the eyes of a thousand mes looking back at me, pushing me down the drain
Saying more than anyone could ever say
You know, I never saw it coming, yet I felt it all along
It came creeping over me, embracing me from the inside
The urge to see it all fall apart
So that's what I did
I fell apart
And it felt... great
You gotta spit out
All that is stuck inside
Lie
Through the teeth of a perfect smile
We gotta take down
All that is left behind
Thrive
Through the lies of a faceless smile
I felt the glass crush in my hands
As the adrenaline started pumping, I felt blood rush down my arms
I thought it would hurt, but it didn't
My hands started shaking with excitement as I slowly moved them over the now empty surface
It was flat, like an unwritten page
I wasn't there, I was just... nothing
As I stopped looking at the reflection, and started seeing behind the glass
Everyone was there, but I didn't see any one
I wasn't worried any more
I just saw myself
I just felt... complete
You gotta spit out
All that is stuck inside
Lie
Through the teeth of a perfect smile
We gotta take down
All that is left behind
Thrive
Through the lies of a faceless smile
Broken and scarred
I stepped over glass, embraced this facade
To no longer suppress
All of the eyes I've met and caressed
Leaving my past
To keep myself falling back to the start
Breathless and speechless
My life never felt so damn near limitless
You gotta spit out
All that is stuck inside
Lie
Through the teeth of a perfect smile
We gotta take down
All that is left behind
Thrive
Through the lies of a faceless smile
I could taste it all. And I loved it
Standing there in front of the mirror, desperately scratching it off my fingertips
I felt the eyes of a thousand mes looking back at me, pushing me down the drain
Saying more than anyone could ever say
You know, I never saw it coming, yet I felt it all along
It came creeping over me, embracing me from the inside
The urge to see it all fall apart
So that's what I did
I fell apart
And it felt... great
You gotta spit out
All that is stuck inside
Lie
Through the teeth of a perfect smile
We gotta take down
All that is left behind
Thrive
Through the lies of a faceless smile
I felt the glass crush in my hands
As the adrenaline started pumping, I felt blood rush down my arms
I thought it would hurt, but it didn't
My hands started shaking with excitement as I slowly moved them over the now empty surface
It was flat, like an unwritten page
I wasn't there, I was just... nothing
As I stopped looking at the reflection, and started seeing behind the glass
Everyone was there, but I didn't see any one
I wasn't worried any more
I just saw myself
I just felt... complete
You gotta spit out
All that is stuck inside
Lie
Through the teeth of a perfect smile
We gotta take down
All that is left behind
Thrive
Through the lies of a faceless smile
Broken and scarred
I stepped over glass, embraced this facade
To no longer suppress
All of the eyes I've met and caressed
Leaving my past
To keep myself falling back to the start
Breathless and speechless
My life never felt so damn near limitless
You gotta spit out
All that is stuck inside
Lie
Through the teeth of a perfect smile
We gotta take down
All that is left behind
Thrive
Through the lies of a faceless smile
I could taste it all. And I loved it
