The Face I Wear - Eldritch

There’s nothing to lose when you’re falling to pieces

Like getting drunk on the 4th of July

Trying to see if there will be a limit

On living steady on the edge of life

Too many times in so many ways I got in trouble

Nothing will change till the day I’ll die

I wear a face like if I’m in love

But I don’t wanna show ya

Don’t wanna tell you how your strike was tough

Bringing me right down to hell now

When party starts and my friends carry me there

I’m like a fish jumping out of the bowl

My funeral face always gets there before me

A story read at least a thousand times

I wear a face like if I’m in love

But I don’t wanna show ya

Don’t wanna tell you how your strike was tough

Bringing me right down to hell now

I’ll never call you back

Or give you a trace of me

I’ve been losing all hopes and there’s no chance for me

For living a life with a bit of dignity
