Day 14 - A Song That Nobody Would Expect You To Love

There's this popular saying: "Don't judge a book by it's cover." When people look at me, they think that I usually listen to divas like Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, etc. So, it comes as a surprise to them when they get to see what songs are in my iPod. A friend was surprised when she heard me listening to Red Jumpsuit Apparatus' Face Down. She said that it was off-character. Well, that just goes to show that we really make deductions about someone by how he or she looks like. I happen to love the song, and she might be more surprised if I shared some of the not so-shiny moments of my life.
Face Down
by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
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 goin' down 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 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 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 I see the way you go and say you're right again Say you're right again, heed my lecture Do you feel like a man, when you push her around? Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground? [- From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/r/red-jumpsuit-apparatus-lyrics/face-down-lyrics.html -] 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 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? One day she will tell you that she has had enough It's coming round again 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 Face down in the dirt she says, ?This doesn't hurt? She says, ?I finally had enough?
