The Growlers
Decoy Face
[Verse 1]
Darley had her own views, downloaded through hesitation
Eyebrows like a mad clown, causing too much salivation
Even while I’m talking, I can see her eyes departing
She wears a decoy face while her mind slips away

[Chorus]
Everyone doing their best
Yes, I care impressions
This is better, yeah, it’s true
'Cause I don’t want to hear their real confessions

[Verse 2]
So many voyeurs hoping for a good show
Scrappers and lawyers waiting for a stumble
Sharp claws cradling the bubble
Wearing their decoy face while their mind walks away

[Chorus]
Everyone doing their best
Yes, I care impressions
This is better, yeah, it’s true
'Cause I don’t want to hear their real confessions

[Bridge]
Better not to eat up
All the things you wish were true
Though they love you, I think you should know
You really are alone
[Post-Bridge]
The truth of solitude

[Verse 3]
Thought I hated gambling, now every day's a deck of cards
Losings got me terrified and winnings what they’re calling art
I wear my decoy face as my mind walks away

[Chorus]
Everyone doing their best
Yes, I care impressions
This is better, yes, it’s true
'Cause I don’t want to hear their real confessions

[Post-Chorus]
Better not to eat up
All the things you wish were true
Though they love you, I think you should know
You really are alone
