Faces

Broken down,
this place seems to have no face.
There's no one moving forward now,
they're just drowning in it all.
Walking around in circles
with a never changing view.
As hopeless as this all may seem,
there's a reason for everything.

Trust me, I know.

I've been to the same places,
and seen the same faces
come and go.
You're left wondering now
can you resist somehow?
But you've fallen behind again,
not knowing where you've been,
just where did you begin?

And again,
faces blank like they've always been.
Ignoring everything that matters,
just following behind.
Always pointing fingers now,
no, you're never the one to blame.
I know you don't want to feel
responsible for all that is real.

Trust me, I know.

I've been to the same places,
and seen the same faces
come and go.
You're left wondering now
can you resist somehow?
But you've fallen behind again,
not knowing where you've been,
just where did you begin?
