Can't Face Up Lyrics

Sloan 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?
except I'm up here,
And you're down there,
You'll never know what it took.
You don't care what it took.
The look in your eyes,
As I Turn on the light.
The look in your eyes,
a look of surprise.
Sneakin' Around,
In this one trick town,
You can't face up to me.
I know your crowd,
And they're not that proud,
At least not from what I've seen.
Flies in the ink leave
Footprints across the sea.
Trace them back to where it all gets had,
You find the cuts never run too deep.
The cuts never run too deep.
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back.
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do.
No, no.
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back.
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do.
I stand my ground.
I'm just what I seem to be.
You swung? me down.
for So long, for so long.
The weight that I carry,
knowin what they've done to us.
How many names does it take,
'till they blame,
the people you always should trust?
The people you always should trust
The look in your eyes,
As I Turn on the light.
The look in your eyes,
The look of surprise.
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back.
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do.
No, no.
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back.
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do.
'Cause I can't face up to you.
