Lyrics

We drive to keep our conscience clear

We engage in activities to maintain a clear conscience.

Imagine closure sinking deep into the air

Imagining closure or resolution permeating the atmosphere deeply.

Our loss is not gaining new ground at all

Our grief or defeat is not progressing or finding new footing.

I fight this everyday

The speaker struggles with a challenge on a daily basis.


Against this ever-changing face

Fighting against a constantly changing persona or identity.

I fight you everyday

Continuing to combat an ever-changing adversary.

Against your ever-changing face

Fighting against the ever-changing identity of another person.

With a fresh sense of purpose and direction

Approaching challenges with renewed purpose and direction.


We cannot hide now from ourselves

We cannot avoid confronting our true selves.

In disguises all our own

Wearing disguises that we create for ourselves.

Still we can't escape at all

Despite disguises, we cannot escape our true nature.

We run from things that can be seen

Attempting to avoid visible challenges or problems.


But if we would close our eyes

Suggesting that closing our eyes reveals a genuine threat.

We would see the real threat against us

The real danger becomes apparent only when we close our eyes.

I won't run from this world

Commitment to facing and not running away from the world.

Only our faces hide

Our true selves are concealed only by our faces.


The quiet defeat inside

A silent sense of defeat exists within.

Only our faces show

Our faces reveal reflections of a deeper reality.

Reflections of so much more

Indicating that there is more to us than what is immediately visible.
