Faces
CRI Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I don't ever see ya
So it's hard to believe ya
Searching, searching for something that never comes
So I fill in, fill in with something else

I cannot change what it does to me
Since it became what you'll never be
No lows
No pain
Straight lines
Perfect
No will never be, no will never be enough

I can only forget the moment we met
Leaving, leaving for some place alone again
So I fill in, fill in with something else

I cannot change what it does to me
Since it became what you'll never be
No lows
No pain
Straight lines
Perfect
No will never, no will never be enough





Easy, easy
When it's up in the air

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to CRI's song "Faces" describe the feeling of searching for something that is unattainable, often because the person or thing being sought is no longer present in one's life. The singer sings about not seeing the person they are addressing, and therefore finding it hard to believe what they say. They describe searching for something that never comes, and filling the void with something else. The repetition of the phrase "no will never be enough" emphasizes the idea that the desired outcome is unattainable.


The second verse speaks of the struggle to move on from someone or something that has left a lasting impact. The singer admits that they cannot change how this absence affects them, and that they have replaced the missing presence with something else. As with the first verse, there is a sense of longing that is emphasized by the repetition of the phrase "no will never be enough." The final line of the song, "easy, easy when it's up in the air," brings the theme of the song to a close, suggesting that it is easier to let go of something intangible than something tangible.


Overall, the lyrics to CRI's "Faces" are evocative of a sense of yearning and unfulfilled desire. The repeated phrases and minimalist instrumentation of the song reinforce this feeling of searching for something that is forever out of reach.
