Face the World
Everon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There are things that are so clear
And pretend that everything is alright
While you try to make believe
That there ain't nothing wrong
You can't count your sleepless nights
What can you say at the point of no return
What will you say when the fire stops to burn
And there's no place left where you belong
We won't be happy
With all the things we have
If we can't stop thinking of the cost
We won't be happy
With all our friends we have
Filled up with fear
That they might once get lost
What can you say at the point of no return
No use to ask for right or wrong
What will you say when the fire stops to burn
And there's no place left where you belong
Go face the world
Take things just the way they are
Face the world
Let honesty be our guiding star
We face the world
There ain't no use to lie to yourself
Face the world always eye to eye
When the world is facing you
You can say it gets better
When it won't
You can say age makes you wiser
But it don't
You can plead, you can preach
You can knock on wood until your fingers bleed
But you will not change a fact ...
Go face the world
Take things just the way they are
Face the world
Let honesty be our guiding star
We face the world
There ain't no use to lie to yourself
Face the world always eye to eye
When the world is facing you
What can you say at the point of no return
No use to ask for right or wrong
What will you say when the fire stops to burn
And there's no place left where you belong
Go face the world
Take things just the way they are
Face the world
Let honesty be our guiding star
We face the world
There ain't no use to lie to yourself
Face the world always eye to eye
When the world is facing you
The lyrics of Everon's song 'Face the World' have a powerful message about facing the truth and the consequences of our actions. The singer questions why people pretend that everything is alright when in reality, things are far from it. He asks the listeners to face the world and take it as it is, rather than trying to make believe that there is nothing wrong. There are sleepless nights to count and no use in asking what is right or wrong, as some things simply cannot be changed.
The chorus of the song encourages the listeners to face the world with honesty as the guiding star. The singer explains that people will not be happy with all the things they have if they cannot stop thinking about the cost. He also touches on the fear of losing one's friends and the need to face the world with truth and look at it always eye to eye. The final verse states that we can say things will get better or age will make us wiser, but in reality, they may not. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the importance of facing the world with honesty and taking it as it is.
Overall, the song 'Face the World' is a powerful message about accepting reality and facing it with truth and honesty, even when it is difficult to do so. The lyrics are a reminder that there are consequences to our actions, and that it is important to be true to ourselves and to others.

When it won't
Even if they do not improve
You can say age makes you wiser
You can believe that aging leads to wisdom
But it don't
But that is not always the case
You can plead, you can preach
You can beg, you can try to persuade
You can knock on wood until your fingers bleed
You can do everything you can but still not change what will happen
But you will not change a fact ...
But you cannot change what is true
