Face Down
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 going 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 got 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 wait 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?
Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's got 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 got 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 got 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!"

Overall Meaning

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus's song "Face Down" is a powerful commentary on domestic violence and abusive relationships. The song's lyrics describe the pain and fear experienced by the victim of abuse, as well as the emotional and psychological manipulation that abusers use to control their victims. The song's opening lines, "Hey girl you know you drive me crazy / One look puts the rhythm in my hand," set a tone of violent obsession, as the singer obsesses over the object of his desire. However, this is quickly followed by the realization that the object of his desire is in an abusive relationship.


The remaining lyrics are a plea to the abuser to stop his violent behavior and a message of hope to the victim that they can escape the cycle of abuse. The powerful chorus, "Do you feel like a man / When you push her around? / Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground?" highlights the cowardice and cruelty of the abuser while also offering support to the victim.


The song's message of hope for victims of abuse has resonated with many listeners and has become an anthem for survivors of domestic violence. The band has also used their platform to raise awareness for domestic violence and partner with organizations working to end abuse.

"Caída No Chão" - Letra

[1° Estrofe]
Ei, garota você me faz enlouquecer
O seu olhar me faz tocar pra você
Eu nunca entendo porquê perder seu tempo
Eu sei o que está acontecendo
Cobre com maquiagem para ninguém ver
Se convence que nunca mais vai acontecer
Você chora sozinha e ele jura amar você

[Refrão]
Se sente mais homem quando joga ela no chão
Se sente melhor quando a vida dela vai em vão
Meu amigo, vou falar
Um dia seu mundo vai acabar e suas mentiras também
Vida nova ela vai encontrar

[2° Estrofe]
Até uma pedra na água causa efeito
Cada ação nesse mundo tem uma consequência
Se continuar desse jeito vai se afogar por dentro
Eu sei o que está acontecendo
Eu vejo como passa e diz que está bem, diz que está bem
Escute bem o que eu vou dizer

[Ponte]
Caída no chão suja
Ela disse que não machuca
Ela diz; "já aguentei demais"
Um dia ela vai te dizer que já aguentou demais
Mais uma vez
