RUSH LYRICS - Face Up

"Face Up"



You turn my head

I spin my wheels

Running on empty

You know how that feels



I'm on a roll now

Or is it a slide?

Can't be too careful

With that dangerous pride

If I could only reach that dial inside

And turn it up



Face up...Face up or you can only back down

Face up...Hit the target or you better hit the ground

Face up...There's still time to turn the game around

Face up...Turn it up

Or turn that wild card down

Face up...Turn it up



Don't complain

Don't explain

I don't think my new resolve

Can stand the strain



I'm in a groove now

Or is it a rut?

I need some feedback

But all the lines are cut

I get so angry, but I keep my mouth shut

And turn it up



You get all squeezed up inside

Like the days were carved in stone

You get all wired up inside

And it's bad to be alone



You can go out, you can take a ride

And when you get out on your own

You get all smoothed out inside

And it's good to be alone

Turn it up
