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.
I couldn't believe you let him do that too you. The things he did, they we're horrible. He was horrible. He didn't deserve you-he never did. I couldn't believe I just sat back and watched it happen.
Cover up with make up in the mirror
Tell yourself, it's never gonna happen again
You cry alone and then he swears he loves you.
Every day, it was getting worse and worse but I didn't say anything. You said it was nothing-just a little argument but most arguments don't end up with bruised faces and scarred bodies. Still, I said nothing.
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.
I talked to him about it once-it didn't work out. It ended the up the way all of your "arguments" ended. Son of a-…still, I said nothing. I was afraid and that's when I realized you were too.
A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect
Every action in this world will bear a consequence
If you wade around forever you will surely drown
I see what's going down.
Mark my words, you're going pay for it. You're going pay for everything you did for her. Son of a-…I swear you will regret it, I swear.
I see the way you go and say you're right again,
Say you're right again
Heed my lecture
"It's fine Eric, I'm fine." That's what you would always say. You would give me a smile-that smile and my heart would melt. All I wanted was to make you happy and to do that, I had to keep my mouth shut. So I did but I wish I hadn't.
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.
Two and a half years, that's how long it took her to leave you and your monstrous grip. Her parents found out. It didn't take them long did it? She left for college across the country. My heart still ached for her.
Face down in the dirt, she said,
This doesn't hurt, she said,
I finally had enough.
You finally broke her, literally. You don't break your arm and leg from falling. Son of a-…
One day she will tell you that she has had enough
He's coming round again.
You were so damn desperate. She came home and I thought it was finally my chance. I spent weeks planning that party for her but you had to show up. I'd never seen her so upset. The bracelet I bought for her still sits in my drawer. You ruined everything. Son of a-..
Do you feel like a man when you push her around?

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.
Finally they came and took you. I had been waiting for this day and when it came I couldn't be happier to see you go behind those metal bars. Melissa cried, but for what Jackson-you?
Face down in the dirt, she said,
This doesn't hurt, she said,
I finally had enough.
You weren't even worth it.
A/N: Tell me what you think! This is my first song-fic and the song is called "Face Down" by the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. It is amazing-you should listen to it. Thanks to Dally2! She told me about the song. Please Review! I'd love to see what you thought.
