The Truth
Outside today a little boy cried
'Cause the bully took his bike out for a spin
And down the street he went til he's out the line of sight
Where he stopped to break them back tires in
Two rusty nails and an appetite for bad
He took revenge upon them two shiny wheels
'Cause its one thing he had was making people sad
And he knew that's how the little boy would feel
And it tasted like a flavor you thought you knew
And the truth might be just a little too sour for
You, you don't, you can't, you won't, you will
From the house up on the hill
Where time begs the truth to tell
And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that there's nowhere else to go
But hide among the shadows of the lies
The lies, we told
Inside today a fine young woman cried
Because her husband won't be coming home again
And across them battle lines
He took a bullet in the chest that claimed his life
And colonel fear had to take some time
And make some truth up for his wife
'Cause she just needed a little something now to hold on to
For the only truth she ever knew just died
And it tasted like a flavor she thought she knew
And the truth might be just a little too sour for
You, you don't, you can't, you won't, you will
From the house up on the hill
Where time begs the truth to tell
And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that there ain't nowhere to go
But hide among the shadows of the lies
The lies, we told
You told, you told
You told, you told
All the lies, all the lies, all the lies
You, you don't, you can't, you won't, you will
From the house up on the hill
Where time begs the truth to tell
And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that there's nowhere else to go
But hide among the shadows of the lies
The lies, we told
It ain't so black and white
Between the truth now and our lies
So lets find another place to go
And take the blinds up off our eyes
And it's a myth we're living in
'Cause there ain't no wrong or right
All you know is what you see
Let's hope that you're not blind
To the truth
'Cause the bully took his bike out for a spin
And down the street he went til he's out the line of sight
Where he stopped to break them back tires in
Two rusty nails and an appetite for bad
He took revenge upon them two shiny wheels
'Cause its one thing he had was making people sad
And he knew that's how the little boy would feel
And it tasted like a flavor you thought you knew
And the truth might be just a little too sour for
You, you don't, you can't, you won't, you will
From the house up on the hill
Where time begs the truth to tell
And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that there's nowhere else to go
But hide among the shadows of the lies
The lies, we told
Inside today a fine young woman cried
Because her husband won't be coming home again
And across them battle lines
He took a bullet in the chest that claimed his life
And colonel fear had to take some time

For the only truth she ever knew just died
And it tasted like a flavor she thought she knew
And the truth might be just a little too sour for
You, you don't, you can't, you won't, you will
From the house up on the hill
Where time begs the truth to tell
And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that there ain't nowhere to go
But hide among the shadows of the lies
The lies, we told
You told, you told
You told, you told
All the lies, all the lies, all the lies
You, you don't, you can't, you won't, you will
From the house up on the hill

And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that there's nowhere else to go

And take the blinds up off our eyes
And it's a myth we're living in
'Cause there ain't no wrong or right
All you know is what you see
Let's hope that you're not blind
To the truth
