Faces

Posted September 7, 2001 5:12pm ET

Sometimes I sit here and think about
All those faces that come and go
The little pieces and parts of this
Faded and broken down life
It seems that I can do anything
Yeah, that’s what they’ll say
It’s not like it matters anyway

Look away
I’ve never been able
To look you in the eyes
And tell you I don’t care
Look away
If I pretend I have
Your answers and I
Could give you reasons why
Look away
Look away from me
I’m tired of looking at all
Your sharpened faces

Sometimes I sit here and think about
All the faces that come and go
The only reasons I have to hold on

Look away
I’ve never been able
To look you in the eyes
And tell you I don’t care
Look away
If I pretend I have
Your answers and I
Could give you reasons why
Look away
Look away from me
I’m tired of looking at all
Your sharpened faces

Look away
Look away from me
I’m tired of looking at all
Your sharpened faces
I’m tired of looking at all
Your truths
Your lies

Scott Bradford has been building web sites and using them to say what he thinks since 1995, which tended to get him in trouble with power-tripping assistant principals at the time. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Public Administration from George Mason University, but has spent most of his career (so far) working on public- and private-sector web sites. He is not a member of any political party, and brands himself an ‘independent constitutional conservative.’ In addition to holding down a day job and blogging about challenging subjects like politics, religion, and technology, Scott is also a devout Catholic, gun-owner, bike rider, and music lover with a wife and two cats.
