Original Face Lyrics

Stuart Davis Original Face

I woke up and my head hurt
had a mouthful of blood and dirt
bits of heart all over my shirt
heart all over my shirt

Something painful feeding me love
split my skull to hatch a dove
now that's all there ever was
all there ever was

If I were you, and I am
I'd let the question take my hand

You woke up without a name
went to work without a brain
took one breath and everything changed
everything was change

Something painful feeding you light
split your skin to hatch a life
now that's all there ever was
all there ever was

If I were you, and I am
I'd let the question take my hand
If you were me, and you are
you'd let the question take your heart

There's a light bulb in every one
bright enough it could swallow the Sun
every mask will be erased
there is just the original face

If I were you
I am, I am
It's all one place
It's all the original face
