2nd day almost missed

So I was so busy I almost missed today's post.  Therefore it will be short.


Face Down by Red Jumpsuit Aparatus came out in 2006.  The first time I heard this song I didn't actually listen. When I did listen to the lyrics I was surprised at what I heard.  I often find myself liking songs that contain complete honesty.  


My favorite lyrics in this song are "A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect.  Every action in this world will bear a consequence "


I so often think of the phrase "violence begets violence" when I meet some of the children who have gone through life learning from parents who may not be completely wrong but definitely do not have it right.  That's what I get from those lyrics.


Here's a link to the video of this song.  Notice that throughout the video the main character doesn't seem affected by the growing violence around her.
