Stare It Down Songtext
von Steve Wynn

When the devil is at your door
(It′s like an invitation)
And you won't listen anymore
(It′s like a celebration)
Right in the face of recrimination
Breaking down the walls of illumination
Right there before you
Don't you know you got to stare it down
Oh


When the light hits blistered skies
(It's like a holy thunder)
And nobody seems surprised
(It′s like a touch from thunder)
Looking for clues in a room full of strangers
Brushing back the hair from the face of danger
Right there before you
Don′t you know you got to stare it down
Oh
Oh yeah

In a dream I was overcome
(But I was only sleeping)
Silent and acting dumb
(As it was slowly creeping)
Laying in the pool of my determination
Swear it was more than imagination
Finding the truth in a hallucination
Turning the corner on elimination
Right there before you
Don't you know you got to stare it down

Oh
Oh
Oh
