Faceless

“How does it feel to be a number?” asked the man behind the counter and glass.

“Better than having no face,” I replied.

A Nightmare to Remember, Dream Theater

Lying on the table

In this unfamiliar place

I'm greeted by a stranger

A man without a face

He said, "Son, do you remember?

Do you even know your name?"

Then he shined a light into my eyes

And said, "take this for the pain."

"Tell me does this hurt you?"

Said the faceless man.

"Can you move all of your fingers?

Can you try your best to stand?"

Over and over

Scene by scene

Like a recurring nightmare haunting my dreams.

Life was so simple then

We were so innocent.

It will stay with us forever

A nightmare to remember

Eyes Without a Face, Billy Idol

I spend so much time

Believing all the lies

Now it makes me sad,

It makes me mad at truth

Now I close my eyes,

And I wonder why

I don't despise.

Eyes without a face.

Got no human grace

Your eyes without a face.

Between the Wheels, Rush

You know how that rabbit feels

Going under your speeding wheels

Bright images flashing by

Like windshields towards a fly

Conclusion

Dogs, Pink Floyd

Like the club tie, and the firm handshake

A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile

“No, no, no! No more handshakes,” barked the dog behind the bullet-proof glass and bars.
