Lyrics
The Truth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The hair on your shoulders is coming undone.
The battle is over and nobody won.
Are you happy with what you've become?
You better get out of town before you hurt someone.
You know what you took, still you're leaving.
And I'm making you look but you don't see it.
I won't get over this time, you had a heart just like mine.
I won't get over this time, you wait and see
And I heard the story you're trying to spread.
The lies are pouring right out of your head.
The truth is coming, soon you'll see.
Whoever is by your side, soon they won't be.
You don't believe what you're saying.
Boy, even your eyes are betraying
I won't get over this time,
You had a heart just like mine.
I won't get over this time.
You wait and see
What it's like to give
And to never get anything.
And I got tired of offering my soul.
I won't get over this time,
You wait and see, oh.
Yeah, you wait and see
You don't believe what you're saying.
Boy, even your eyes are betraying
I won't get over this time, you had a heart just like mine.
I won't get over this time, you wait and see
What it's like to give and to never get anything
And I got tired of our funny, our song.
I won't get over this time, you wait and see, oo.
Yeah, you just wait and see, ah.
