Face to Face

There was a bad boy in the school yard
Waited on you every day
Seemed like every time you turned around
Well he was standin in your way.
Well he broke your glasses
The girls all laughed
As he pushed you to the floor
But then you stood up one day knowin
You couldnt stand it anymore
And your gentle hand was finally clenched in rage
You were face to face.
Face to face with the devil that youve been dreadin
Eye to eye finally has arrived
But bad as it was, well now brother wasnt it better
Dealin with him face to face.
Your date showed up with flowers
And you thought your dreams had come
But with every passing hour
You felt it come undone
Then the night exploded and you begged him no But he forever changed your life
And now he waits a judge and jury
Thinkin youll break down inside
And with a finger you can put his fists away
And youre face to face.
Face to face with the devil that youve been dreadin
Eye to eye finally has arrived
But bad as it was, well little sister wasnt it better
Dealin with him face to face.
cause itll never go away
Until the fear that you are runnin from is finally embraced.
Drivin by the grave yard
On a wicked winters eve
And youre wonderin why a man of faith
Is whistlin nervously
Then you stop the car
And you hold your heart
cause you finally realize
Hell, the devil aint in the darkness
Hes arattlin round inside
And with folded hands you truly start to pray
And youre face to face.
Face to face with the devil that youve been dreadin
Eye to eye finally has arrived
But bad as it was, well now brother wasnt it better
Dealin with him face to face.
cause itll never go away
Until the fear that you are runnin from is finally embraced
Face to face
