Face Down

They sing about a girl that gets beaten up by her boyfriend and hides her wounds with make-up, but since she still loves her boyfriend, she sticks around even though she gets beaten, probably because she has hope for a change, but in the end, the boyfriend will have to learn that if he keeps acting like that, she will leave him. The song was written by Winter about lead singer Ronnie Winter's mother who was abused by his father.

[Verse 1] Hey girl, you know you drive me crazy One look puts the rhythm in my hand Still, I'll never understand why you hang around I see what's going down Cover up with makeup in the mirror Tell yourself, "It's never gonna happen again" You cry alone, and then He swears he loves you [Chorus] Do you feel like a man when you push her around? Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground? Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found [Verse 2] A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect Every action in this world'll bear a consequence If you wade around forever, you will surely drown I see what's going down [Pre-Chorus] I see the way you go and say you're right again Say you're right again, heed my lecture [Chorus] Do you feel like a man when you push her around? Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground? Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found [Post-Chorus] Face down in the dirt, she said, "This doesn't hurt" She said, "I finally had enough" Face down in the dirt, she said, "This doesn't hurt" She said, "I finally had enough" [Bridge] One day she will tell you that she has had enough It’s coming 'round again [Chorus] Do you feel like a man when you push her around? Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground? Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found Do you feel like a man when you push her around? Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground? Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found [Post-Chorus] Face down in the dirt, she said, "This doesn't hurt" She said, "I finally had enough"
