Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Getting drunk, tryna to comprehend the things you said
Like a movie scene playing in my head
The one I always seem to keep watching over again
Over and over again
Pretty face and tattoos
Helped you get by
Now I'm looking at you
No you didn't have to
Try and fix me
Pretty face and tattoos
Such a pity look at you
Pretty
Tattoos
A pity
Yeah look at you
Pretty so pretty
Tattoos
Usually I'm sympathetic but babe what you did to me
Is so pathetic I can hardly be with you
Not fair acting like you don't care
Clearly you can't visualize
How much you fucked up my life
Pretty face and tattoos
Helped you get by
Now I'm looking at you
With new insight
No you didn't have to
Try and fix me
Pretty face and tattoos
Such a pity look at you
Pretty
Tattoos
A pity
Yeah look at you
Pretty so pretty
Tattoos
I think it's pathetic
how you wasted my time
I kinda regret it
But I'm gonna be just fine
I think its pathetic
How I gave you my time
I kinda regret it
But I'm gonna be just fine
I'm gonna be just fine
Pretty face and tattoos
Helped you get by
Now I'm looking at you
With new insight
No you didn't have to
Try and fix me
Pretty face and tattoos
Such a pity look at you
Pretty
Tattoos
A pity
Yeah look at you
Pretty so pretty
Tattoos
You didn't have to try and fix me
The lyrics of "Faces" by Shoes and Laces explore the aftermath of a failed relationship and the feelings of regret and disillusionment that come with it.
The opening lines refer to the singer's state of mind after the breakup, as they find solace in alcohol but struggle to make sense of the things their former partner said. They describe the situation as a recurring movie scene in their mind, indicating that they constantly replay the painful memories.
The mention of a "pretty face and tattoos" suggests that the ex-partner relied on their physical appearance and outward image to navigate life. However, the singer now sees them in a new way, with a deeper insight into who they really are. This shift in perspective highlights the superficiality of their previous attraction.
The chorus expresses a mix of sympathy and disappointment towards the ex-partner. The lyrics imply that the ex-partner tried to fix or change the singer, possibly suggesting a manipulative or controlling behavior. The singer sees this as a pity, emphasizing that it is not necessary for someone to try and change who they are.
In the second verse, the singer criticizes the ex-partner, believing that what they did was pathetic and regrettable. They express the feeling of being deceived by the ex-partner's indifference and inability to understand the impact they had on the singer's life.
The repetition of the chorus reinforces the singer's emotions and their determination to move on from the failed relationship. They acknowledge their own mistakes in giving their time to someone unworthy, but also express resilience in stating that they will be fine without them.
Overall, the lyrics of "Faces" convey a sense of disappointment, regret, and self-reflection following the end of a relationship. The song highlights the importance of not allowing others to have power over one's identity and emphasizes the singer's ability to recover and thrive.
