Emilie Autumn: Faces Like Mine

yeah, I was bored
________________________

You say you're curious
Can't leave a thing to your imagination
I wish you'd close your eyes
But oh you seem so serious
I should enjoy the sweet interrogation
You start to hypnotize me
I should not be telling you
I'm flattered by your interest
Who am I talking to
Could be the demon with a mask
Why should I trust in you?
I don't feel safe
I never did
But what else can I do
But what you ask?

Think of your darkest night
Think of your soul alone
If you can bear the sight
Think of the love you've never known
Yes, it's unusual
To live your life this way
All I can say
Maybe that's why you don't see
Faces like mine every day

You'd like to stir it up
Just like a sad, forgot until remember
I didn't ask for this
But still you hold me in your gaze
And from my lips
The moments I have captured
Still I'm in reminiscencance
From a place you'll never know
I find the strength to tell you things I hardly ever show
My mirror holds your severed tongue
But in your amber eyes
I see the the questions never end
I never could disguise
So why pretend?

Think of your darkest night
Think of your soul alone
If you can bear the sight
Think of the love you've never known
Yes, it's unusual
To live your life this way
All I can say
Maybe that's why you don't see
Faces like mine every day

Who will forget me?
No one knows I've done wrong
Won't you believe me?
'Cause I won't last that long
No, I
I wanna be quiet now
All alone
Back to my shadow
I'm gonna hide behind
The trouble in my mind

You say you'll stay around
You've finally found the answer to my story
Congratulations, love
So go ahead, decipher me
And solve the puzzle if you need the glory
I wish I could be of your kind
I need to be alone
To tell you how much you don't know
It isn't what I've done
But rather what I hold inside
Even if I give up
I won't be victim to your game
You're only free when you have nothing left

Think of your darkest night
Think of your soul alone
If you can bear the sight
Think of the love you've never known
Yes, it's unusual
To live your life this way
All I can say
Maybe that's why you don't see
Faces like mine every day
Every day

Err, reading comments, apparently someone called E.A. gay? Well, as far as I can tell, she IS female, so this must refer she is quite happy. I am impressed you know her to be so! This song is so pretty; For reff. I love her vocals in all her songs. I could practically dance to these songs all day.

[DukeZinnia]

@AbstractPerson10 Who cares, EA's songs are great. End of story.

[AbstractPerson10]

what in all hell has broken loose over this beautiful song's comment section?

[midnightwallflower]

@smoogirl Only in a derogatory sense does gay mean male-male sex. It's actually something the LGBT community has been going on about for a while now. The terms "gay" and "lesbian" were established because of historical discrimination. I'ts like calling an Asian black because we don't have a word for their actual race but know they aren't white, race being a social construction in itself.

[smoogirl]

@smoogirl *same sex relations

[smoogirl]

@midnightwallflower Lesbian is female, gay is male... homosexual is the description for male sex relations... ... I'm straight, and even I know that?

[LordZeratulX]

@Quazarpat That is quite extreme, but I agree with you.

And here I must slip a note ; this is the first video that I see with precisely 0 dislike ! At last, there is no one to kill here !

[haruhiXmanga]

Actually. she's asexual. just putting it out there C:

[MrK2345]

Emilie is pan-sexual. 

[InmateW1570B]

@midnightwallflower: From what I know she is bi-romantic :).

[Wharwulif]

@Quazarpat But without the "fuck" or "devoted muffin" or "devour their souls" =P
