Can't Face Up

Turn around

You can't face up to me

I stand my ground

I'm just what I seem to be

Why, in the world

Would you give me a second look?

'Cause I'm up here

And you're down there

But heaven know what it took

You don't care what it took

The look in your eyes

As I turned on the light

Look in your eyes

A look of surprise

Sneaking around

In this one trip town

And you can't face up to me

I know you're proud

And I'm not that proud

At least not from what I see

Flies, and big leaf

Footprints across the sea

Trace them back

To where it all gets had

You find the guts never run to deep

Guts never run to deep

How many times have I tried

Just to get away from you and you reel me back

How many times have I lied

That was nothing that I can do

No no, and how many times have I tried

Just to get away from you and you reel me back

How many times have I lied

That was nothing that I can do

I stand my ground

I'm just what I seem to be

You stump me down

So long, for so long

The weight that I carry

Knowing what they've done to us

How many names does it take to lay blame

On the people you always should trust

The people you always should trust

The look in your eyes

As I turned on the light

Look in your eyes

The look of surprise

How many times have I tried

Just to get away from you and you reel me back

How many times have I lied

That was nothing that I can do

No no, and how many times have I tried

Just to get away from you and you reel me back

How many times have I lied

That was nothing that I can do

'Cause I can't face up to you
