Girl born without a face

I'm all out of hope
One more bad dream could bring a fall
When I'm far from home
Don't call me on the phone
To tell me you're alone
It's easy to deceive
It's easy to tease
But hard to get release

Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Got no human grace your eyes without a face.

I spend so much time
Believing all the lies
To keep the dream alive
Now it makes me sad
It makes me mad at truth
For loving what was you

Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Got no human grace your eyes without a face.

When you hear the music you make a dip
Into someone else's pocket then make a slip.
Steal a car and go to Las Vegas oh, the gigolo pool.
I'm on a bus on a psychedelic trip
Reading murder books tryin' to stay hip.
I'm thinkin' of you you're out there so
Say your prayers.
Say your prayers.
Say your prayers.

Now I close my eyes
And I wonder why
I don't despise
Now all I can do
Is love what was once
So alive and new
But it's gone from your eyes
I'd better realise

Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Got no human grace your eyes without a face.
Such a human waste your eyes without a face
And now it's getting worse.

i agree...

i wonder how many people, when they look at a person with a
normal, attractive face, never really see *the person*, just
the face that's in front of them.

this little girl is *a person.*

if you feel sorry, don't feel sorry for the girl, feel sorry
for the culture that sees only a face and is blind to the
person...

I'm aware of this as well. But all things considered life is
difficult enough without having an impairment this severe.

(note: I haven't watched the video at the time of this post)
I'm sure I'll piss everyone off, but i dont care:

What about back in the day, when natural selection had a say
in things? nowadays science allows people with terrible
genes to survive and even produce more tainted humans.

To me, its obvious, if you're born and you cant breathe or
you cant eat because you dont have a mouth, guess what.
You're fucked. Something somewhere is trying to say
something, yet everyone is like "poor thing!". You know
whats sadder than this? The fact that you have to hook them
up to a machine so they can survive. Yeah its sad, but guess
what, everyone dies at some point, so why would you want to
let this poor girl suffer and go through life living like
this? If it was my kid, it would be extremely hard to put my
money where my mouth is, but I would still go through with
it. It wouldn't be easy and it would probably haunt me for
the rest of my life, but I dunno, I guess i feel that in the
long run its the best thing.

I'm willing to discuss this so dont get your panties in a
bunch...

I admittedly jumped to conclusions. Technology might well
improve her current condition, but I'd have to SEE
improvements to change my mind.

true, this girl highlights the thin line between meaningful
life and purposeless suffering, even living and dying. i
won't pretend to know what i would do in her parents'
place.

however, anytime i've heard anyone interviewed who suffered
from tremendous physical limitations/difficulties, the
individual was very glad that they were given the chance to
overcome those challenges, and to seek success on their own
terms.

i do hope that reconstructive surgery will help ease her
burden.

if this little girl's presence can remind one person of the
importance of perceiving a whole person and not just their
face, clothes, hairstyle, etc then i think her life is
tremendously valuable, and though she may be forced to find
pleasure and joy far removed from our own experiences, i see
no reason why she should be deprived of her own pleasure and
joy.

As long as she's mentally sane and has regular hearing, she
can still make music.

she'd be a hit on the Howard Stern show. move over
Beetlejuice!

who knows if it is a good or bad thing the parents didn't
kill her. only she with no face will know once she grows up.
could be bad for her, could be not so bad.

really, she's just uncomfortable (not in pain) and other
people think she's a freak, that's no reason to end her life

that didn't really seem all that bad, she just looks like an
alien. but around her mouth it looks very uncomfortable
because of all the spit leaking out. If surgery could fix
that and allow her to close her mouth, it'd be a lot better.

It's good that she was born into a good enough family to
keep her

Alot of people would see it as a burden to them and nbot
want to bother (as sad as it is). I hope they all do realt
well and live happy ever after
