Fear the face I say, for it’s not me
But how you all want me to be
They couldn’t find an artist to smile
Got me a new face that could never frown
Disgust I feel, it’s just not me
It’s not a new face I crave; new life’s what I need
I see the world in black...black alone
The eyes are cut out, black I will still see
I shout the lines to make you hear
How much I suffer, why the new face I fear
They couldn’t find an artist to smile
Got me a new face that could never frown
It’s not sweat but tears you see gleaming
In the spotlight, jewels they seem
Mist surrounds me as I crouch
I look around, to find my feet still on the ground
Rise above it all; feel I soar far over the skies
Only to realize it’s a stage, it’s a lie
I shout the lines to make you hear
How much I suffer, why the new face I fear
They couldn’t find an artist to smile
Got me a new face that could never frown
It’s not sweat but tears you see gleaming
In the spotlight, jewels they seem
I take a bow, rid myself of the face
Look into the mirror, only to see
I made myself another pearl,
Just under my eye
But how you all want me to be
They couldn’t find an artist to smile
Got me a new face that could never frown
Disgust I feel, it’s just not me
It’s not a new face I crave; new life’s what I need
I see the world in black...black alone
The eyes are cut out, black I will still see
I shout the lines to make you hear
How much I suffer, why the new face I fear
They couldn’t find an artist to smile
Got me a new face that could never frown
It’s not sweat but tears you see gleaming
In the spotlight, jewels they seem
Mist surrounds me as I crouch
I look around, to find my feet still on the ground
Rise above it all; feel I soar far over the skies
Only to realize it’s a stage, it’s a lie
I shout the lines to make you hear
How much I suffer, why the new face I fear
They couldn’t find an artist to smile
Got me a new face that could never frown
It’s not sweat but tears you see gleaming
In the spotlight, jewels they seem
I take a bow, rid myself of the face
Look into the mirror, only to see
I made myself another pearl,
Just under my eye
