Face On The Wall

We lose, we regret, things pass

and they set down like a sunset.

See the trees, blowing breeze, we forget.

Like shrugging off a bad bet.

One day you walk down a hall.

There is that face on the wall.

And it all comes back.

It all comes back.

You blink, then you walk, it’s nothing

And you carry on your day plan.

Get coffee, or a tea; veggie sandwich

Now it’s time to get to work.

Walking to your car

There is that reflecting face

And it all comes back.

It all comes back.

The face and the place

and the time that’s erased

Is on the walls in the hall

All around

Over here. Over there

It’s always everywhere.

It’s that face on the wall.

Turn around.

That took you from nothing at all

And made you feel tall

Then you shut the door.

Turn around.

So, then you to go to hide in your room

To blast some shit, I-Heart tune

You open your eyes

And you’re not safe inside

Because it’s back on that wall

It’s still there in your hall

It always comes back

Yeah, it always comes back.

Well, you dropped the ball

You took for granted; you’re small.

She gave you her all

So see her face on the wall

See her face on the wall.
