Faces In The Dark

Generationals

Compositor: Generationals / Grant Widmer / Ted Joyner

I take some comfort in losing my memory.
Then I get it back and I said,
"So this is what they mean?"
They don't say that don't make it hard.

Everybody's making faces in the dark.
Don't stop struggling, that's what sets you apart.
It's the ghost of inhibition that's what's breaking your heart.
Everybody, everybody's making faces in the dark.

Now I understand inhibition I was listening to.
It's the middle of the summer and I got nothing to do.
I only miss my own city park.

Everybody's making faces in the dark. Don't stop struggling, that's what sets you apart. It's the ghost of inhibition that's what's breaking your heart. Everybody, everybody's making faces in the dark.

And you let your self see
you're making a mess of it all and Esteban,
your sister and me we're all right.

There is a perception of a regular thing.
You have been covering up all the things you won't let anyone see.
Though you're really close by you won't see me.
I got a double in the city that's burying me tonight.

So how is it that the memory is still so clear?
And you can't sell it back so pretty while it's here.
They get sad and it temps and they start.

Everybody's making faces in the dark.
Don't stop struggling, that's what sets you apart.
It's the ghost of inhibition that's what's breaking your heart.
Everybody, everybody's making faces in the dark.
Everybody, don't stop struggling…
