Faces

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 so 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
 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
 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
 And 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
 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
 Let's just say we've run our course
 No need to argue or question the source
