about

If everybody looked the same, we'd get tired of looking at each other.

lyrics

A rabble rousing infinitely varied in its swarm
A tapestry familiar wove in unfamiliar form
An everyday occurrence far beyond my wildest dreams
A mystery unveiled to be no more than what it seems

CHORUS
A sea of different faces I have never seen before
A million different years in the making, or yet more

A gallery of happenstance, an accident sublime
The last leaf on the highest branch of trees as old as time
A suit cut by the past to greet tomorrow as it beckoned
Biographies with covers read and put back in a second

CHORUS x2

And off they flow like rivers braiding through the city streets
A horde of chance encounters never once again to meet
Each one wearing the face a host of histories contrives
To go their separate ways and live a thousand different lives

CHORUS x 2
