Face Down Acceptance Lyrics

Acceptance Lyrics

Awaken and I feel sick 

Like butterflies dying in my stomach

Now I cannot sleep

The visions creep behind my stare

Giving me the reality

Of dying in a nightmare

Don't say that it doesn't mean anything

Don't say you can't die in your dreams

I'm running through a familiar hall

The nameless overwhelming

They keep pushing me they're pulling me apart

What I think what I feel what I say

Well it doesn't seem to make a difference to anyone but me

You can't imagine what I see when I dream

It's a wonder that I have not been locked away

I don't know why I care who can say

Does a little part of me die every night I close my eyes

I shut my eyes and dream

Don't look right don't talk right why are you not right

Don't dress right don't walk right I'll show you the light

I wanna be your friend I'm gonna help you blend

Into an All-American

Clean you up real good like you know I should

You'll never be yourself again!"

Now I know what they mean when they say

That resistance is a lesson in futility

They can grab they can pull they can break

To prove they're strong but I will awake and realize they were wrong

So wrong about me
