Faces - Suad

The same story keeps on repeating

And I’m not sure what to think about it

I think I saw a knowingness

But where it went I think

Maybe it got buried in the backyard

The sweet feel of familiar faces

Got me running in the circles of my hometown

And even though I hear the sound of the bell

I will not turn around, you will not see this face frown

In the night when I lie awake

I hear the storm arise right in clear blue skies

Like the one when I was playing in our backyard

And I don’t know where it starts and ends

And it is moving to the core again and moving on

And I know it shouldn’t be so hard

The same show keeps on repeating

And I ́m not sure what to do about it

Staying still despite the motion

Got me hiding right behind those words of yesterday

Sweet dreams, unremoved here

Even though I tried so hard, so hard to tone it down

And even though I hear the sound of the bell

I will not turn around, you will not see this face frown

In the night when I lie awake

I hear the storm arise right in clear blue skies Like the one when I was

playing in our backyard

And I don’t know where it starts and ends

And it is moving to the core again and moving on

And I know it shouldn’t be so hard

Voices I hear and they echo in the night

I dance around them and welcome all they know

Places avoided at all cost come into sight

I used to go there and not so long ago

I used to stare at the sun not long ago

The same story keeps on repeating

And I’m not sure what to think about it

And even though I hear the sound of the bell

I will not turn around, you will not see this face frown

In the night when I lie awake

I hear the storm arise right in clear blue skies

Like the one when I was playing in our backyard

And I don’t know where it starts and ends

And it is moving to the core again and moving on

And I know it shouldn’t be so hard

Voices I hear and they echo in the night

I dance around them and welcome all they know

Places avoided at all cost come into sight

I used to go there and not so long ago

I used to stare at the sun not long ago
