A FACE I DREW
Words and Music by Jeff Jones

People see images of images of each other
With no apparent means
Of heart connections to one another
They dance on minefields
In search of a love
And wade through mushroom clouds
To see the face they thought they saw

(Chorus)
I know I'm a fool who fell for you
Always thinking I knew who you are inside
But all I knew
Was a face I drew
From an unforgiving crowded room
An unforgiving crowded room

People see images of images of each other
Emotions and needs contain seeds
Of detachment disguised as lovers
To penetrate walls of mirrors
We walk through shattered glass
Kidding ourselves
As we openly bleed
Our broken pasts

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
Romance becomes a salesman's pitch we all want to buy
Then you find you're compromised
And kill all the love inside
And rely on strategies that barely keep you alive

I know I'm a fool
And so are you
Never thinking how we choose
Between a lie and a lie
But all you knew
Was the face you drew
From an unforgiving crowded room
An unforgiving crowded room
