The Truth About You

(album: Soft Dogs - 2002)

Yeah, the truth is
Over and over I know
Slower and slower things grow
It might not be pretty I know
But, the change is happening slow
You've found a pitiful tongue
Yeah, it translates what you've become
Worse than crazy, you're dumb

So, I say see ya
I wouldn't wanna be ya
Everything is clearer
The truth about you
You got no one to lie to
No one there to cry to
I just want to say goodbye to
The truth about you

The truth is
Love arrives and it dies
Old darknesses, childhood lies
We all got our own disguise
I just wish you'd be more of a surprise
Until I'm gone and all grown
I'll always want someone to own
But, with you, I just want to be alone

So, I say see ya
I wouldn't wanna be ya
Everything is clearer
The truth about you
You got no one to lie to
No one there to cry to
I just want to say goodbye to
The truth about you

I don't mind the coming down
It's the way it's got to be
I only hope I'm left inside

So, I say see ya
I wouldn't wanna be ya
Everything is clearer
The truth about you
You got no one to lie to
No one there to cry to
I just want to say goodbye to
The truth about you
