  • Faces, pictures on the wall
    Do you sleep at all when you sleep?
    Faces, burning in your mind
    Faces

    She's trapped inside her own world
    And I'm trying to get in
    And she doesn't know what's goin' on
    Or where she might have been

    And she talks to many people
    And she lives life through their eyes
    And the voices down the hall
    Tell her no reason where or why

    All of your life you've been missing the answer
    It should be easy to tell

    You see faces, pictures on the wall
    Do you sleep at all when you sleep?
    Faces, burning in your mind
    Will it be the lies that you see?

    She hears the words of people
    That live deep in her mind
    And she wants to feel the passion
    That's locked up inside

    The pictures now are falling
    There's no trace at all
    And the voices that were calling her
    No longer call

    All of your life you've been missing the answer
    It should be easy to tell

    You see faces, pictures on the wall
    Do you sleep at all when you sleep?
    Faces, burning in your mind
    Will it be the lies?

    What do you see?

    All of your life you've been hearing the answer
    It should be easy to tell

    No more faces, faces
    Do you see faces?
    Burning in your mind
    No more faces

    Hear me call
    Hear me call
    Hear me call
    ...
