Making Faces - Josie Charlwood

The world’s rushing past my ears

In a way, in a way, in a way I always feared

'Cause I see your face, and then I forget mine

and then all that I stand for and I.

Well it’s okay to stay unsure

But making faces only makes you immature

«Our world is beautiful,» you say

Well if you’re true then why don’t you treat it that way

I said «It won’t be so hard»

I said «It won’t be so hard to say»

And I hoped myself to sleep

And I held myself to it

I’m just too old to play this game

The rules and packs of cards we use just aren’t the same

«But you’re so beautiful,» he says

If he were true then maybe he’d treat me that way

I know it won’t be so hard

I said «It won’t be so hard to say»

I thought «It won’t be so hard»

I said «It won’t be so hard to say»

And I hope myself to sleep

And I hold myself to it.

The world’s rushing past my ears

In a way, in a way, in a way I always feared

'Cause I see your face, and then I forget mine

and then all that I stand for and I.

I lose my place

I lose my place

And I hope myself to sleep

And I hold myself to it

I thought «It won’t be so hard»

And so I said what was in my heart.

I said what was in my heart…
