Face in the Crowd Lyrics


by Schaefer

Walking mindless day by day

Noone cares for what you say

To follow suit denies your own right

For what it's worth, it's not worth a fight

Chorus:

Venture further into the mind

Find the things you should not hide

Rougher seas don't like the outcome

As long as you bring the bread home

You're just a face in the crowd

Wretched darkness, blind in both eyes

Light of new days long has been dry

Stopped in my tracks, no hope of travel

Limb for limb is one man's struggle

Chorus

Art is long and time is fleeting

And our hearts stout and brave

Still the muffled drums are beating

Funeral marching 'til the grave

Chorus

Times come when you think everything is fine

These are the moments that cause the most unrest to the educated soul

Forcing of one's beliefs has long been accepted

Until the belief being forced is not of your liking

Someone hating another for someone thinking unlike others

Gone for the most part, unnoticed for the length of time

Until this reality sets in, in the most brutal way

Does one realize what's important to the uneducated soul
