Familiar Face
And I’m looking around
searching for a familiar face,
but there’s no face to know,
no one to recognize,
‘cause I’m a stranger
and I’m lost in space.
I’m not part of this world,
I don’t belong in this environment
and still
I’m searching for something familiar,
a pair of eyes to connect with,
something that resembles me
and that I can mirror back.
But there’s no one to be found,
not a hint to trace,
there’s no one to connect and no familiar face.
