Lyrics
I'll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away

You'll be there in the slaughter
Freeing me when I'm cornered
Being arrested by the mind cops
They're the only ones worth changing what you do for

And I try to be in line
I guide my fate
And what it's good for there's no telling
It's blood, it's a flood

I'll know her face a mile away
She'll take me straight through that gate
I'll know her face a mile away
She'll take me straight through that gate

Living there in a flower
You wouldn't have made it without her
Though she seems to stay in one place, she grows with your life
So cry for time, what's slow is fast at the same time

It comes to life
And if it dies
You'd never notice 'cause it
It slides as it climbs

I'll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away

And I'll know my pain's a life away
I'll know my pain's a life away
I'll know my pain's a life away
I'll know my pain's a life away
