Exploring themes of youth, rebellion, and the passage of time, this song captures the dichotomy between past fearlessness and present caution. The lyrics juxtapose reckless, carefree behavior—like stealing a car and smashing satellites—with the narrator's realization of life's increasing complexity and danger. The "fourteen faces" metaphor signifies different personas or stages experienced over time, reflecting a sense of disjointed identity and the overwhelming weight of cumulative days. Despite their previous thrill-seeking, the weariness now felt suggests a loss of innocence and highlight how once exhilarating pursuits have become tiring and burdensome. This track eloquently portrays the bittersweet transition from youthful exuberance to a more sobering adulthood.
14 Faces
Lyrics
Bang, bang, let's go
She's hanging half her body out the car window
She's drinking every drop of the moon
She said it's so nice of you
To steal your mother's car and act eternal
But you seem more afraid than you used to now
Fourteen ages
Used to be bravest
I used to be young but now life is so dangerous and
I'm feeling the days, feeling the days
Fourteen faces
Two for each day just
Write in my book while I rip out the pages, ugh
I'm feeling the days, feeling the days now own me
Bang, bang, to the roof
Where we smashed the satellites and the fuse box too
Our sharp teeth are the only light
I drank the whole moon dry
Because all my friends are metalheads
Swear they'd never catch us dead
Split up when the police come
Yeah, running used to get me high
Now I only feel tired
Fourteen ages
Used to be bravest
I used to be young but now life is so dangerous and
I'm feeling the days, feeling the days
Fourteen faces
Two for each day just
Write in my book while I rip out the pages, ugh
I'm feeling the days, feeling the days now own me
