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.
I don?t know where to go - I don?t know what to say.
I don?t know why to leave and what I?m gonna see today.
I don?t know where you are - I don?t know what you?ve found
But all I know for sure, my dear, is that the truth is gonna burn you down!
Gimme the nightlights!
Gimme the rain!
Gimme the shadows of a faith gone down the drain!
Gimme the reasons!
Gimme a round!
And all I know for sure, my dear, is that the truth is gonna burn you down!
I don?t know why we fight - I don?t know why we kill.
I don?t know who?s to blame and why we cheat and and always will.
I don?t know who I am and why I was your clown
But all I know for sure, my dear, is that the truth is gonna burn you down.
Gimme the nightlights........
Didn?t they tell you `bout the truth?
It?s harder than the lie.
And after all these one night stands
you just kiss your tears goodbye.
Silent memories hurt my brain
- but your brain is not the thing
- it?s the "below-the-kidneys-territory"
where the bells of fire ring.
So maybe in another world
or in another life
- some other place - some other time
some other one wheel drive.
What you give is what you get
- but what if you only take?
The wrong way out but the right way in
and another heart to break.
The truth you cannot fake!
Gimme the nightlight..........
