The Truth
If we only knew the truth about it
Maybe we could work our way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
Maybe we could work our way around it
Then maybe we could ignore that the shore
Used to be the edge
Explore more than I block from the next
Sitting over with nothing on our shoulders
But the clothes on our backs
And you leave us here with nothing
Expecting no attack
With soldiers on the way
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
Maybe all the things I do would make sense just for once
Maybe we could work a way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
You think it's crazy
You think there's nothing to hide
Whenever there's a proposition for me to decide on
There's a million suggestions
With a million intentions
With the people getting richer
Off the people getting poorer
It's due for peeking over
There's justice on the way
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
Maybe all the things I do would make sense just for once
Maybe we could work our way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
Or what you said
Behind closed doors
(Or my big lie)
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
And what you say
Behind closed doors
(Or my big lie)
If we only knew the truth about it
If we only knew the truth about it
More than just a lie or two about what
Really goes on and what you said
More than just the right thing to do
The time has just passed us up instead
Maybe we could work our way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
Maybe we could work our way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
Maybe we could work our way around it
Then maybe we could ignore that the shore
Used to be the edge
Explore more than I block from the next
Sitting over with nothing on our shoulders
But the clothes on our backs
And you leave us here with nothing
Expecting no attack
With soldiers on the way
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
Maybe all the things I do would make sense just for once
Maybe we could work a way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
You think it's crazy
You think there's nothing to hide
Whenever there's a proposition for me to decide on
There's a million suggestions
With a million intentions
With the people getting richer
Off the people getting poorer
It's due for peeking over
There's justice on the way
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
Maybe all the things I do would make sense just for once
Maybe we could work our way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
Or what you said
Behind closed doors
(Or my big lie)
If we only knew the truth about what really goes on
And what you say
Behind closed doors
(Or my big lie)
If we only knew the truth about it
If we only knew the truth about it
More than just a lie or two about what
Really goes on and what you said
More than just the right thing to do
The time has just passed us up instead
Maybe we could work our way around it
If we only knew the truth about it
