One day I lost my face in a crowd
I tried to call it back, the color ran into the sand
I'd worn this face before now,
and looked but through jaded eyes
Soft focus...soft focus...
To watch the picture tube, and see me fade from black to grey
Through the darkness I stumbled to,
laughter in the darkened room
Though when I came through the doorway,
the laughter seemed to fade away
Soft focus...soft focus...
Oh can't you see me in this crowde rom? God, can't you hear me in this...
Headlights on the screen passing faraway,
I saw my eys in the car, red light jumped on my face,
on to the screen and left me here.
I couldn't walk away...
