Seven Faces Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Marty1982

One thing people need to realize when interpreting song lyrics is that the lyrics alone often don't entirely define a song's meaning. The actual tone of the music often mixes with the lyrics to paint a pretty solid image in your mind of what the song is about. Seven Faces has a very gloomy/depressive tone, suggesting (at least to me) the the song isn't quite so rosey and optimistic as "Do whatever you want and you'll be free!"
