About Face Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Without a trace, makes me wonder
A staged race has no thunder
This is the case of our blunder

[Chorus]
It's a fire for what?
Time for faith we thought

[Verse 2]
About face, makes me wonder
And in this case, there is no thunder
A bit of grace in our blunder

[Chorus]
It's a fire for what?
Time for faith we thought

[Chorus]
It's a fire for what? (For what?)
Time for faith we thought (We thought)

[Chorus]
It's a fire for what? (For what?)
Time for faith we thought (We thought)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Grizzly Bear say about "About Face"?
Genius Answer

This is the “island song”. Chris Bear had a riff and we just built off of it. In the beginning this was my favorite track.
