All the Pleasant Faces Lyrics

It's been a while I've been sleeping

About two weeks, if we are trying to be exact

But there's an ever-present feeling

That it takes more than melatonin

To clean up a month of holding back

And I'm telling you I'm trying to quit

But you know me better than I know myself

So you know that's a load of shit

And it hurts me just a little bit

When you say I don't know if you can do it

But fuck it, I'll get over it

Clouds in my vision, I can barely see

There's a rift between myself and me

I call it all work and no play

But I've been bed to bed for 14 straight days

And though I say it's in good taste

I think it's time to turn the page

It's been a while I've woken up alone

And all that time I've thought that's just what's meant to be

An empty bed and no one calls my phone

Separated from all the pleasant faces I can see

And in the haze I can remember you

But it's a distant recollection of perfection

Of when us was all I knew

And when it was, I hope you felt it too

But it's time to move on, time to let go

Time to start something new

Clouds in my vision, I can barely see

There's been a rift between myself and me

I'm trying to dislodge

But your face is shining through the camouflage

What went around is coming back

In subterfuge and blind self-sabotage
