The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus – In Fate's Hands Lyrics 18 years ago
When I listen to this song, it makes me think that this is how Ronnie feels about finally making it in the music industry. I dont know how much you all read about the RJA and how much you know.. But Ive read that Ronnie and Duke have had to deal with band members losing faith in the band.. and hard times, dreaming of making it. "I remember a year ago I was standing in the crowd waiting for my chance to break through, my chance to live again." This makes me think of how he's looking back and couldve been at a concert, looking up and dreaming he was on stage, instead. The quote "Now it seems I've found some friends who finally understand what it takes to make this dream come true, we'll be here till the end" probably relates to how happy Ronnie was when Elias, Joey and Jon were found for the band. On their site they mentions that when they found these new members it was like fate, hence "In Fate's Hands" (which was also the name of a former metal band that two of RJA's members took part in). I'm also thinking that when the lyrics "Oh, wish I could thank you all for what you have done and all of the things that you have shared with me" relates to Ronnie's perspective on their fanbase; thanking them for all the support, etc. And finally, I think this quote: "I'm reaching out here to show you what we've been through I think there's something we can share, that's completely new" is speaking of the band's personal/confronting lyrics as well as their originality. Wow I just wrote so much...

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus – Face Down Lyrics 18 years ago
I first heard this song on the radio & didn't know who sang it, I just thought it was catchy. When I realized the RJA did the song, I had to download it. I'll never forget when I first realized the lyrics though - I got the biggest chills down my spine, ever..

There's sorta two parts to the story here.
One part is about a guy who's trying to stick up for a girl he likes, who is in an abusive relationship.. hence "Hey girl you know you drive me crazy, one look puts the rhythm in my hand" (it's talking about masterbation, I dont know if anybody else caught that).
He's asking the girl why she's still with her boyfriend, and asking her why she believes him when he tells her that he loves her. He's telling her to come to her sense's and leaves.

He's also trying to tell this girl's boyfriend that what he's doing isnt right, and that it's going to have an effect on her, and the people in her life, (A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect - meaning, when something happens, it affects everything surrounding it). He's trying to point out that what he's doing is hurting her and that its not right, and that one day she's going to realize that she could be treated better than how he is treating her.

This song is effective, realistic, and not to mention, catchy. It's all around brilliant.
