Face The Music by Saint Wirth Lyrics
No one seems to want to
Stop and face the music
They hide deep in the shadows
When trouble heads their way
When answers are illusive
And problems seem intrusive
People face the music in different ways
Some choose to shut their minds
And hide their heads deep in the sand
Hoping if they don’t think
Things won’t get out of hand
Others have a need to know
Each and every minute detail
Cover every option
Deal with it they say
We are all the entire sum
Of each moment of our lives
There’s no wrong way to handle it
There is no perfect right
What’s good for one of us
May not be good for another
Have respect for every difference
And respect for each other
Be ready to help all those
Who just can’t help themselves
Ask for their permission
To take the problem down off the shelf
Tell them you’ll take care of it
So they don’t have to worry
Do the best that you can do
Take your time and never hurry
View it as a challenge
A worthy one to face
Just another milestone
For the human race
Life’s a series of steps
That we have to overcome
So smile and pray for wisdom
Until the job is done
Stop and face the music
They hide deep in the shadows
When trouble heads their way
When answers are illusive
And problems seem intrusive
People face the music in different ways
Some choose to shut their minds
And hide their heads deep in the sand
Hoping if they don’t think
Things won’t get out of hand
Others have a need to know
Each and every minute detail
Cover every option
Deal with it they say
We are all the entire sum
Of each moment of our lives
There’s no wrong way to handle it
There is no perfect right
What’s good for one of us
May not be good for another
Have respect for every difference
And respect for each other
Be ready to help all those
Who just can’t help themselves
Ask for their permission
To take the problem down off the shelf
Tell them you’ll take care of it
So they don’t have to worry
Do the best that you can do
Take your time and never hurry
View it as a challenge
A worthy one to face
Just another milestone
For the human race
Life’s a series of steps
That we have to overcome
So smile and pray for wisdom
Until the job is done
