Face Down Lyrics
I shut my eyes in search of sleep
Tossed and turned and hoped for dreams
Awakened by Your voice what was so clear
It felt so near to me
I want Your love I need Your touch
I've been missing You so much
I reach out for Your hand
And now it feels like I am falling
Down, down, down
Till I kiss the ground, ground, ground
Falling with my face down
I'm giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride
Now face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so I can live face down
I'm on my face again
It's where I should have been
It brings me back to where I found You
Where I first fell for You
No more depending on myself
It's You and me and no one else
You stretch out Your hand
And now it feels like I am falling into
Love, love, love
Can't get enough of love
Falling with my face down
I'm giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride
Now face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so I can live face down
Love, love, love,
Can't get enough of love
Falling with my face down
I'm giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride
Now face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so I can live face down
I've got to live face down,
I've got to live face down,
I've got to live face down,
face down,
I've got to live face down
Tossed and turned and hoped for dreams
Awakened by Your voice what was so clear
It felt so near to me
I want Your love I need Your touch
I've been missing You so much
I reach out for Your hand
And now it feels like I am falling
Down, down, down
Till I kiss the ground, ground, ground
I'm giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride
Now face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so I can live face down
It's where I should have been
It brings me back to where I found You
Where I first fell for You
No more depending on myself
It's You and me and no one else
You stretch out Your hand
And now it feels like I am falling into
Love, love, love
Can't get enough of love
I'm giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride
Now face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so I can live face down
Can't get enough of love
I'm giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride
Now face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so I can live face down
I've got to live face down,
I've got to live face down,
face down,
I've got to live face down

i'm thinking its about relying on god, instead of yourself.
i agree w/ xrockxlikexwhoa. i think it has to do with him being too proud, and relying too much on himself. and so when he falls face down "It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride". he finally realizes not to be proud [its on of the 7 deadly sins] and to trust his life in God.
I would agree. I think the whole song is about wanting to live your life for God, face down in worship and making yourself smaller so you can make God bigger.
