D: Dating Abuse


YA Causes/Tough Issues continues with
D: Dating Abuse  

Today’s song: Face Down by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus 



Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?
Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
as your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.

A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect
every action in this world will bear a consequence
If you wade around forever, you will surely drown
I see what's going down.
