"Face Down" Lyrics

From the locker room of our high school
To the walk-in closet of your bedroom
Your parents disapprove
Our love's too cool
And I'm just too damn smoothe

I'm jumping off the roof of my room
I'd break both of my legs to get to you
I've worn out my welcome in their home
So I'll come when they're asleep.
Go!

Girl, get dressed, I'll meet you at midnight
We're gonna share a dance
Under the streetlights
Fuck your parents
And your brother's bedtime
Cause this will be our last dance tonight

Well this sucks. Every single night, every single time. This is my last try - I'll show them, won't I?

Well say farewell to your parents
Cause this'll be the last time
That they'll ever see us alive

From the backseat of your parents car
To your best friend's house where they think you are
Your parents disapprove
Oh, that I love you
Oh man if they only knew

I'm jumping off the roof of my room
I'd break both of my legs to get to you
I've worn out my welcome in their home
So I'll come when they're asleep and they'll never know

Girl, get dressed, I'll meet you at midnight
We're gonna share a dance
Under the streetlights
Fuck your parents
And your brother's bedtime
Cause this will be our last dance tonight

Well this sucks. Every single night, every single time. This is my last try - I'll show them, won't I?

Well say goodbye to your parents
Cause this'll be the last time
That they'll ever see us alive

Expect a knock
On your window
At twelve o'clock, we'll be alone
Asleep in their own home
Your parents will never know
Well she says "Don't go, just don't go
I can't make it alone"
Well she says "Don't go, just don't go
Cause I can't make it on my own."

Girl, get dressed, I'll meet you at midnight
We're gonna share our dance
Under the streetlights
Fuck your parents
And your brother's bedtime
Cause this will be our last dance tonight

Well this sucks. Every single night, every single time. We'll show them why.

Well say goodbye to your parents
Cause this'll be the last time
That they'll ever see us alive

Face down in the mud
I'm holding a gun
I'm sitting at the bottom of the ocean
My love, the only one
With her arms wide open
Well she says "Don't go, just don't go
I can't make it alone"
Well she says "Just know, that if you go
Well then I will follow."

"Well then I will follow."

She said "I'm gonna follow"

Whoo!

She says "Don't go, just don't go
Cause I can't make it on my own."
