The Face
Facing Truth: Gentle Giant's Reflection on Confession and Redemption
Lyrics
Sing your song, words that have to continue.
Sing your song, express yourself and continue with your words.
Tell a tale, seal the screen that is in you.
Tell a tale, reveal the inner thoughts and experiences that define you.
Make your peace, face to face that is after.
Make your peace, confront and resolve conflicts directly.
Reasons plain, tears of pain are not laughter.
Reasons plain, state your motives clearly; tears of pain are not a substitute for laughter.
Cast off the mold, buy all you've sold,
Cast off the mold, break free from conventional expectations; reclaim what you've sold.
Confidence lost, pay for the cost.
Confidence lost, acknowledge the consequences and pay the price for your actions.
Choose your way, realizing our mission,
Choose your way, be aware of your choices while understanding our collective mission.
Figures lay, pulling strings for position.
Figures lay, individuals strategize, pulling strings to secure their positions.
Take your bows, hear the people are calling.
Take your bows, accept recognition; hear the people calling for your performance.
Play the game, Take the blame as you're falling.
Play the game, engage in life, and take responsibility even when facing blame or failure.
Time to confess, clean up the mess,
Time to confess, admit your faults and clean up the resulting mess.
Stand in the white, step in the light.
Stand in the white, face the truth and step into the light of honesty.
Use the time, show the face that is sorry,
Use the time, take the opportunity to show remorse and apologize for any wrongdoing.
For the day, questions leading to worry.
For the day, address the questions that lead to worry and uncertainty.
Hide your mask, show the face that is sorry.
Hide your mask, be genuine and show a sincere face, especially when sorry.
Time to question, answering all their worry.
Time to question, it's a moment to answer and alleviate concerns and worries.
Time to confess, clean up the mess,
Time to confess, reiterating the importance of admitting mistakes and cleaning up the mess.
Cast off the mold, buy all you've sold.
Cast off the mold, reemphasizing the need to break away from conformity and reclaim what was sold.
