Face Down
The Pannacotta Army

Stand up for what you believe
You don’t have to make apologies
Don’t be afraid
Of the journey that lies in wait

Stay true to your chosen path
Live each day as if it were your last
Don’t make an excuse
You don’t have to be ashamed of your roots

Face down your foes
And let them know you won’t give in

Don’t let your heart be denied
Set free what you feel inside
There’s no disgrace
Don’t be humbled and rely on your faith

Face Down - Paco del Stinko

Some people bite a pillow when they're on their belly
Just like an ironing board or so they tell me

If that's where you find yourself
It's just like a show and tell

(You can be face down) You know it's every single night
(You can be face down) C'mon baby it's alright
(You can be face down) Oh yeah it's outta site
(You can be face down) Oh my darlin' dynamite


If you come to in the gutter and not on your back
Turn your head to the side and breathe avoid the panic attack

You say you want me - To explode
Oh yeah - That's just the way that it goes

Oh yeah alright
You better run into the night


When you're at the county fair vying for a ribbon
Blueberry apple and cherry all the crust is a given
Bringin' the stink since 2006.

Face Down
see-man-ski

I'm looking for a reason
I'm looking for an excuse
I'm reaching for an angle
but there is nothing I can use

you've put me in my place
you've made me realise
there's nowhere left to hide
there's nothing left to hide

and I should have know better
then to turn and face down
I should have know better
like you

I'm living in regret
I'm living in a fairy tale
searching for the secret
a way we can all set sail

you've put me in my place
you've made me realise
there's nowhere left to hide
there's nothing left to hide

and I should have know better
then to turn and face down
I should have know better
like you

Face Down
Watching Owls

A beast
Restive at everything
A jump
It sent her spinning
Fields
Bare and fading stocks
Hope
You joined my desperate walk

You found me face down
Under stone
Praying for my home
Oh to live with fear
Of caving in
Desparate for her cure

A flood
Wasted everything
The hills
I saw them gleaming
Sweat
We poured like kerosene
Blood
Tarnished the forest stream

I found you face down
By the lake
Covered in your drink
Cod against the run
You would've drowned
But I pulled you 'round

You've got a brighter heart
Stay now, protect your part

Face Down
Yaks of the Industry

We survived isolation for this
A brand new start, a first kiss
I start to think and reminisce
Finally more hit than miss

Do you want to touch the sky
You and me together getting high
I wanna get down, get down with you
I wanna go down, face down for you

It's like I’ve been sitting in a waiting room
Expecting more gloom and doom
Instead I smell sweet perfume
Baby are you coming soon?

The open air, the warming breeze
The salty scent of gentle seas
The sweetest dreams are made of these
Melodies in major keys
Baby will you come for me?

I know it’s not a myth
I know exactly where it is
I waited all my life for this
Tasting touching bliss

Do you want to touch the sky
You and me together getting high
I wanna get down, get down with you
I wanna go down, face down for you
blippity blop ya don’t stop heyyyyyyyyy

Face Down by Stylus Bazaar

I rode downtown on my half hybrid horse sea otter
Scrapped the bottom of the barrel wasn’t even bothered
See you saunter off in that blood red sunset
All the cowgirls are undead are we having fun yet
I step onto the private jet my ink sack starts to sweat
All the sky waitresses embrace that they are kinda wet
We place bets as to when we hit that sonic boom
I make my way across the plane to the gin and tonic room
I saunter through acting fat and sassy
Lactose intolerant so gassy give you acne
And can’t we just act civilized until we’re down
Your mother’s on the wing of the plane she’s a killer klown

Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down
Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down

Image

Wrap me up in yummy cotton candy
I’m a mummy give me rotten handies
Plan B would never be needed
There’s zero chance you’ll ever be seeded
And Speed is my favorite Keanu movie
I remade the matrix and Keanu sued me
But such is life cest la vie
I blow my load and spray on thee
Get cream pied then I’ll get you wet with my squirting flower
Prior to that we’d have been flirting for hours
I take showers after I drill you down
Your mother is my favorite because she’s a killer klown

Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down
Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down

Image

Round we go on the merry go round
I don’t like your face it’s scary like clowns
I wear the crown because I’m queen of the carnival
I eat giant turkey legs I’m mean like a carnivore
I starve for vore I want to swallow you whole
I don’t chase the white rabbit I’d rather follow the mole
I get real swole do you even lift
I’ve got swag when I walk from my uneven hips
I’ve seen your tits it’s looking like whoopee cushions
With chocolate chip nips you’re cookie pushin’
And dipped in pudding cream filler mounds
You take after your mother you’re a killer klown

Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down
Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down
Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down
Your mother’s a space clown, Your mother’s a space clown
She hit you with a cosmic cream pie now you’re face down

I wake up face down
but it just reminds me I’m alive
Despite the haze and brain fog
I stand up and stagger to the light
Shiver, shake, and cringe
at the thought of this being my life
It’s not how I dreamt it would be
at the ripe old age of 35

But I’m alive

I can still be grateful for today
I have food to eat and air to breathe
Clothes to wear and a place to live
People I love and love to give

I wake up face down
but it just reminds me I’m alive
I guess I chose to be here
When I chose that same old stupid vice
I try to shake it off
But the shame rots me from inside
It’s not how I dreamt it would be
at the ripe old age of 35

But I’m alive

I can still be grateful for today
I have food to eat and air to breathe
Clothes to wear and a place to live
People I love and love to give

I can still be grateful for today
The sun still rose, the birds still sing
The touch of the wind upon my face
That beautiful smell after it rains

Yeah I’m alive
Yeah I’m alive
My messiness
Reminds me I’m alive
Not a musician; just a guy.
