[Intro]
Oh, no, no-no
No, no

[Verse]
I still see faces, faces in the dark
And I'm weightless, weightless, I can't feel my arms (Oh)
And I'm flying, yeah, dope in my lungs
I be wild-in' 'cause she playing with my tongue
I be falling, yeah (Oh)
She say, she say everything I want to hear (Yeah)
"This way," she start leading me to the bathroom
Showing me her tattoos
I can't wait, I'm thinking this shit cannot be real
She like, "It's okay," seen it all on my face
I was looking both ways (Woah, oh-oh)
Now she all up on the wall
Can't control it, moaning
Five in the morning and she horny, (She horny, ah), yeah

[Refrain]
I still see faces in the dark evеn when I'm with you
With you, with you, with you (With you)
(I still see faces in the dark whеn I'm high, high)
I still see faces in the dark even when I'm with you
With you, with you (Faces in the dark, uh)
I still see faces in the dark even when I'm—
I still see faces in the dark even when I'm— still with you (She still looking at me)
