Dancing Round The Truth

(album: Peace And Offerings - 2021)

Why do you need so much attention, but give me no affection
I just wanna see a stake in a soul
Making me so unwelcome when you're spitting your venom
Know you got my soul here in a choke-hold

It's always been so complicated (Yeah, yeah)
Mixing all this love and hatred (Yeah, yeah)
In these two hearts that keep breaking
I don't think that we can make it, no

Where do I go when you don't wanna know?
What do you see when you don't wanna be?
We ain't say a word, so what do I do?
We keep dancing round the truth
We keep dancing round the truth

I see all your demons that you run from
But see, what a conundrum, when you wanna take it all out on me
And I just wanna protect you
I just wanna connect to all the deepest parts of your entity

But all I give, you keep on taking (Yeah, yeah)
All the colour, see it fading (Yeah, yeah)
I can feel it all decaying
I don't think that we can make it, no

Where do I go when you don't wanna know?
What do you see when you don't wanna be?
We ain't say a word, so what do I do?
We keep dancing round the truth
We keep dancing round the truth

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, eh eh
Walking around the edge for the longest stretch
Time to accept all the disconnect
All the disappointment, all this disjointed
Though we try to 'void the co-counterpointed
No, no
No, no
Oh

Where do I go when you don't wanna know?
What do you see when you don't wanna be?
We ain't say a word, so what do I do?
We keep dancing round the truth
We keep dancing round the truth

Where do I go when you don't wanna know?
What do you see when you don't wanna be?
We ain't say a word, so what do I do?
We keep dancing round the truth
We keep dancing round the truth

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, eh eh
