[INTRO] (Vinyl crackle) Children crying… Like a piece of me Is dying. (Pause) Hold on… Let me fix my face. [HOOK] Let me fix my face. Before they see What I’ve become. Let me fix my face. Before the questions Outrun the answers. Let me fix my face. Before the mirror Starts talking back. Let me fix my face. Again. [VERSE 1] Blinded by the light I’ve been chasing. A journey led By distracting darkness. Heavenly hallucinations. Illusionary placement. Judging judgments. Assuming assumptions. Turning something Into nothing. Who’s bluffing? God? Satan? An angel? Or me? [BUILD] Someone died for our sins. Yet we’re born unstable. One bump made cocaine able. One swallow. One snort. One drink. One thought. One choice. One story. One label. [HOOK] Let me fix my face. Before they see What I’ve become. Let me fix my face. Before the questions Outrun the answers. [VERSE 2] Tagged walls Inside a windowless house. Reading words I never wrote. Pain asking questions Love can’t answer. Blame staining brains. Fear dressing itself As certainty. Truth hiding Inside discomfort. [BUILD] Where are my prayer warriors? Fighting battles They can’t define. Casting stones At shadows. While fear Lives comfortably Inside their own minds. [BREAKDOWN] Maybe I’m crazy. Maybe I’m sane. Maybe sanity Is questioning The things we’re told Never to question. Maybe the stream Knows where it’s going Even when the paddles don’t. [HOOK] Let me fix my face. Before I laugh At what I feared. Let me fix my face. Before I cry For what I loved. Let me fix my face. Before the mask Falls off again. [FINAL VERSE] Sleep never rests. Tired becomes motivated. Clouds become messes. Messes become lessons. Lessons become roads. Roads become questions. Questions become faith. Faith becomes movement. Movement becomes life. [OUTRO] Children crying. Like a piece of me Is dying. (Pause) Maybe that’s growth. Maybe that’s grief. Maybe that’s both. (Vinyl crackle) (Lonely scratch) Let me fix my face.
