Lost Face Songtext
von Beady Belle

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce
The face that I′m about to lose
I'll change it into something new
To give myself a different view

My ex-eyes could only see the world from behind
Someone else crossing the finish line
Reminding me, that in this race
I′ll always be out of place

I put my lost face on a pedestal
So have a close look at it now
Remember what appears incapable
Is not what you see, but how

My ex-ears could only hear the urging word
"Pull yourself together, follow the herd"
Like a threatening flick of a whip
Knowing I'll always be inadequate


My ex-mouth could only make fake, phony boasts
Glossing over what I feared the most
The truth exposed, I'd dropped behind
Excuses I couldn′t find

I put my lost face on a pedestal
So have a close look at it now
Remember what appears incapable
Is not what you see, but how

So Ladies and gentlemen, I have given up
′Cause my winning streak was to stop
Measuring strength in a common game
My answers are outside the frame

I put my lost face on a pedestal
So have a close look at it now
Remember what appears incapable
Is not what you see

Oh, I put my lost face on a pedestal
So have a close look at it now
Remember what appears incapable
Is not what you see, but how
But how
