Face It
Guns Up! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pushed you in a corner
Now thers nothign to do
You way you'll face it
Its just another time
Hiding from youself
Keep your problems in line
Procrastinate until it gets out of hand
Its just another day, a chance gone by
Your wasted, time to face it
Looks like your out of time
And when they ask "whatever happened to him?"
Ill shake my head & say "he thew it all in"
Realize you didnt give enough
This shits not so hard
You're only making it tough
And since you dont talk- i cant read minds
So long maybe ill see you around some time
Its fucking sad, you turned into one big joke
Its all your actions that are making you choke
Can i see a change? i guess ive seen it before,
But i wont hold my breath
Because my lifes worth more
Then i watched you throw it all away
Move closer to a life full of pain
So youre scared to face it?
Fuck you
You brought this on yourself
The song "Face It" by Guns Up! is a powerful and emotional piece about confronting one's problems and taking responsibility for one's actions. The lyrics speak to the experience of being caught up in a cycle of avoidance, denial, and procrastination that ultimately leads to self-destruction. The first verse describes how "reality snuck up" on the person, pushing them into a corner and leaving them with no options. Despite their attempts to hide from themselves and keep their problems under control, they know deep down that they need to face the truth. The chorus reinforces this message, emphasizing that time is running out and that it's time to take action.
The second verse is more confrontational in nature, as the singer addresses the person directly and highlights the negative repercussions of their behavior. The lines "You turned into one big joke / It's all your actions that are making you choke" are especially biting, as they suggest that the person's behavior has become so ridiculous that it's almost comical. The bridge of the song takes a more resigned tone, acknowledging that change is possible but not guaranteed. Throughout the piece, the lyrics emphasize the importance of taking action and owning up to one's mistakes.
Overall, "Face It" is a powerful and thought-provoking song that tackles important themes related to self-reflection and accountability. Its raw honesty and emotional intensity make it a standout in the hardcore punk genre.

Reality snuck up on you
The truth hit you unexpectedly
Pushed you in a corner
It left you feeling cornered
Now there's nothing to do
You feel helpless and lost
You way you'll face it
You say you'll confront the issue
Its just another time
This situation has happened before
Hiding from yourself
You're avoiding the truth about yourself
Keep your problems in line
You try to control your problems
Procrastinate until it gets out of hand
You delay taking action until it’s too late
I see your wits holding by a thin hope's strand
Your sanity is barely intact
Its just another day, a chance gone by
Another wasted opportunity
Your wasted, time to face it
You're a failure, you need to accept it
Looks like your out of time
It's too late to fix things now
And when they ask "whatever happened to him?"
When people wonder what became of you
Ill shake my head & say "he threw it all in"
I'll say you gave up on everything
Realize you didn't give enough
You didn't try hard enough
This shit's not so hard
It's not as difficult as you think
You're only making it tough
You're making it harder than it needs to be
And since you don't talk- I can't read minds
You don't communicate, so I don't know what you're thinking
So long maybe I'll see you around some time
Goodbye, maybe we'll meet again someday
It's fucking sad, you turned into one big joke
It’s pathetic how you've become a laughing stock
It's all your actions that are making you choke
Your choices are suffocating you
Can I see a change? I guess I've seen it before
I'm not sure if you'll change, I've seen you fail before
But I won't hold my breath
I'm not optimistic
Because my life's worth more
I value my life too much to waste my time on you
Then I watched you throw it all away
I saw you ruin everything
Move closer to a life full of pain
You're moving towards more suffering
So you're scared to face it? Fuck you
You're cowardly for avoiding the truth
You brought this on yourself
You're responsible for your own misery
