Lyrics
Truth Be Told
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 hear my whispers through these walls
But this mouse isn't blind
Conspiracy and treachery send shivers down my crooked spine
All the seeds you sow turn rotten, selling water off as wine
Wretched minds and wicked crimes corrupted by design
Well truth be told, we've lost control
and it scares the hell out of me
'Cause we are not to blame, but we're guilty
We're guilty just the same
Whoa oh oh!
They claim to be the cure we need
While spreading their disease
My weary eyes still see their lies
They buried what they can't disguise
And it's so deceiving
Well truth be told, we've lost control
and it scares the hell out of me
'Cause we are not to blame
But we're guilty just the same
Well truth be told, we've lost control
and it scares the hell out of me
'Cause we are not to blame, but we're guilty
We're guilty just the same
Woo!
Is this the end, they'll pay the price for your soul
Is this the end, this fear is taking control
This fear, won't defeat us!
This fear, won't defeat us!
This fear, won't defeat us!
Nothing, can defeat us!
Our conscience for sale so what price will you set
They're signing the cheque while it rests on your head
Well truth be told, we've lost control
and it scares the hell out of me
'Cause we are not to blame
But we're guilty just the same
Well truth be told, we've lost control
and it scares the hell out of me
'Cause we are not to blame, but we're guilty
We're guilty just the same
Whoa oh oh oh
We are not to blame
Not to blame
We are not to blame
Not to blame
