The Last Fence
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.
It's the last fence
You know I can't jump it
I got rocks in my head from the lines I was fed from
you
It makes no sense
Another failed romance
I'm just spinning around in a daze and you're calling
the tune
And my case shall rest that my worst defence was you
And now I'm feeling so tense that I just can't see it
through
Is there no way
You'll ever see it my way
And as the old song says there's nothing hurts like
the truth
When it's all said
I always knew something
All the lame alibis I could see in your eyes a blue
So it's the last fence
I really couldn't care less
I've been walkin' around like I'm the talk of the
town, yeah I'm through
And the case shall rest that my first defence is you
Am I cursed or blessed, willl you ever confess the
truth?
Is there no way
You'll ever see it my way
And as the old song says there's nothing hurts like
the truth
Saying those things that should never be said
Living life without a single regret
There's so much we can lose
What's left for me and you?
And like the old song says
There's nothing hurts like the truth
Is there no way?
You'll ever see it my way?
And as the old song says
There's nothing hurts like the truth
Yeah the old song says
There's nothing hurts like the truth
Yeah the old song says
There's nothing hurts like the truth
Like the old song says
There's nothing hurts like the truth
