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.
