You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
My brother, oh brother
Won't you put your weapon down
All this life you take
It won't save your own tonight
My killer, oh killer
Won't you open up your eyes
Those who send you out
They're the ones you should despise
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
My people, oh people
Won't you let your sorrow go
Putting all your faith in the fantasy you know
It takes all your strength
Just to stay right by the book
While the light outside, it grows darker
Won't you look
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
My lover oh lover
Won't you rather say goodbye
It takes all my strength
Just to tell you no tonight
Heart breaker, heart breaker
Won't you cut me a little slice
Of this mess we made
It is good enough to die
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
You got to know who to face
