suburban truth - forgotten faces lyrics

[verse 1: suburban truth]

i’m desensitized
to human attachment
my heart every time’s too elastic for drastic action
i don’t wanna lose distant connection
but we went in two different directions
earth keeps spinning faster than desired
i wanna slow down
so i’m grabbing a lighter
remembering good times
keeping track as a writer
and bad times
so i remember that i’m a fighter
i’m sliding down this life’s incline
like line rider
tryn’a see the light through black
like eye liner
tons of mundane days lost in gray
this monday’s among hundreds of rotten days
these speed bumps
not enough to cause the breaks
wanna read on
discover i lost my place
life becomes
something you often hate
and you’ve become another forgotten face
well

[interlude:]
will you remember me
as just a memory
when my face fades
there remains nothing left of me
don’t accept defeat

slow down [the third time]

[chorus:]
forgotten faces
are stories of the past
could you believe that connection we once had
technology will never replace
face to face
embrace me
i haven’t changed a bit

[verse 2:]
when school ends
we’ll inevitably disperse
fakes say they’ll miss me
but we never even conversed
at the ten year reunion
relevance will be missing
but the salaries’ll quicken
the jealousy at its worst
see people change
but never really mature
see it’s strange
it never really occurred to me
one day
we’ll be separated for good homie
faces change
until hennessy’s in the dirt
i couldn’t tell you what i did
last tuesday
usually
i can’t remember most
that you say
memories like old socks
tossed in a bundle
the best days ever
got lost in the shuffle
it sounds cheesy
but it’s profound to me
what i achieve
or become proud to be
that i announce to a crowd
of people i once knew
is without meaning
if the town weren’t around to see
well

[verse 3:]
i don’t wanna drift apart
i wish in a year
that i’m still a part
of your life
but i know it’s impossible
to restart i would knock every obstacle
to be us
not to keep touch because we love
more than coincidence
so let’s stay connected
hold our grasp
to more than just stories of the past
it’s scary to think
what once “was”
so i cherish the “is”
your appearance in a year
isn’t very distinct
a lucky pick
from the millions of cheerio rings
i feel like the kid buried
in material things
don’t you ever dare compare me to him
i still feel
and i swear by the parable king
that i too hear america sing
yes
i too hear america sing

[outro:]
we sent the message
the method’s to question every essence
i blame it on the
evident evanescent effervescence of adolescence
easily jaded
feebly faded sedated
feasibly shaded by shady people
evil instated
straight from the matrix
coding the media sacred
shaping the face of a nation
all wikipedia pasted
on a essay
in the tenth grade
got the best grade
it was satire
it was written about how a century later
we’re pressing the pedal with flat tires
leme backtrack
think i’m being a little to abstract
can you grasp that?…
