Losing My Face
Navigating Love's Shadows: Losing My Face by Holly McNarland
Lyrics
What if I'm not ready
Feeling unprepared or hesitant about engaging in speculative scenarios.
To play the 'what if' game?
Questioning the wisdom of entertaining hypothetical situations.
What if we're all takers?
Suggesting a collective inclination towards self-interest or being opportunistic.
I'm losing my face
Expressing a sense of losing one's identity or self-worth.
What if she's a ghost now?
Raising the possibility that someone significant has become elusive or distant.
Does she know your name
Questioning if the elusive person is aware of your existence.
She's never seen him smiling
Describing a person who has never witnessed someone's happiness.
I'm losing my face
Reiterating the theme of losing one's identity or sense of self.
Take me with you my ghost
Expressing a desire to accompany a ghost, possibly metaphorical, on a journey.
Is coming home real soon
Anticipating the return of a ghostly presence or an elusive figure.
Take me with you my ghost
Repeating the desire to be taken along with the returning ghost.
Is coming come real soon
Reinforcing the imminent return of the ghostly figure.
Take me with you my ghost
Continuing the plea to be taken along with the returning ghost.
What if she's not steady
Raising doubts about the stability of a person and their involvement in manipulative activities.
She plays the players game
Suggesting that a person participates in a game of manipulation.
What if we're all taken
Reiterating the idea of collective self-interest or being claimed by others.
I'm losing my face
Echoing the sentiment of losing one's identity or face in the midst of collective actions.
