Flat on Your Face Lyrics

She ran you down like a steamroller

And you've been kicked around with

Your face in the ground

You can't find justice

And justice isn't looking for you

You feel you've lost control of your destiny

Anything you do

Is not the right move

There's nowhere to go

Nothing you can show

But you've got something to prove

You're flat on your face

Down in the dirt

Somehow you managed

To get yourself hurt

It's time for givin up

Why bother try

You're flat on your face

Time to see the judge

He brings the gavel down

He says you have pay

And you're dressed like a clown

The people point and snicker

They're laughing at you

You can't take this lying down but

You can't counter sue

No matter what you do

You can't find your groove

There's no where to run

You've got no one

But you hope things improve

You're flat on your face

Down in the dirt

Somehow you managed

To get mud on your shirt

You don't have a case

Give up the chase

You're flat on your face

You've got to pull it together

It's gonna take some time

Now that you have freedom

You don't have a dime

You might have the audacity

To get back on your feet

They are waiting for the chance

To throw back into the street

That pie they gave you

Had the bitter taste of humility

They better keep you down

Or they will be sorry

Whatever you do

Someone will disapprove

There's nowhere to fall

You've given your all

Had something removed

You're flat on your face

Down in the dirt

Somehow you managed

To lose your dessert

You didn't win

You got kicked in the shin

Now you're flat on your face
