Faces

I learned a lot about love
When I lost you
I learned a lot about being alone
I learned a lot about
Running away from my problems
When that was the only way to go
I learned a lot about
Over thinking and under talking
When I just figured you wouldn’t care
I learned a lot about being honest
When you said you’d always be there
Where are you now?
I learned a lot about being careful
When I scraped my knee at school
I learned a lot about my so called friends
And all the things I’d do to be cool
I learned a lot about faces
And how many of them I could have
I learned a lot about what’s come and gone
And everything I’d do to get it back
Where are they now
Where are they now
I never seem to have the right words to say
Never seem to have quite what it takes
Maybe I’ll grow up and graduate
Slave my life away at a job I hate
Maybe if I started praying to God
Make my parents proud for what I’m not
Go from a beaten down drunk they wish they’d never met
To a born again sinless puppet
So tell me more about what you’ve lost
So tell me more about what you’ve lost
