-This is a song I wrote for my band, so that is why there are repeated verses, they are the chorus.


Familiar Face

You say two minds
Are always better than one
But I say that one mind
Has never done me any wrong
How can I trust anybody
That I don’t recognize
Give me a choice to pick a face
And I’ll always choose mine

Turn around and go back
To where you came from
Should of known you were coming
Never had a chance to run
By now you should of seen the signs
That were placed in front of you
I don’t need anybody
Except for myself

Waking up alone is always blinding
But waking up at all is always frightening
There are many things I’d like to do
If I only knew you
But I don’t know how

Maybe someday
You could be
A familiar face to me too

I knew that you thought
You were the only one
But I hope now you’ve caught
The idea I threw at you
That my heart never will part
For anyone else but me
I know our times were always fun
But you were never the only one
And neither was she

Waking up alone is always blinding
But waking up at all is always frightening
There are many things I’d like to do
If I only knew you
But I don’t know how

Maybe someday
You could be
A familiar face to me too

I hope someday
You could be
A familiar face to me too

This is great!  I think I'd like to see your band.  If the lyrics are this good, the whole package must be brilliant!  What is your band called?

 The tragedy of it is that nobody sees the look of desperation on my face. Thousands and thousands of us, and we're passing one another without a look of recognition.
