Staind - The Truth lyrics

rate me

<BR>

It's 3 AM,<br>

It's cold outside, and you can't sleep.<br>

Is it from your conscience talking, <br>

to the skeletons you keep?<br>

Every time you try to speak, only craziness comes out.<br>

But she can't turn the other cheek, <br>

and you can't help how it comes out.<br>

<br>

So when did you decide, to embrace what you hate to survive?<br>

Cuz that's not what got us here.<br>

<br>

It's 8 AM and still no sleep, but you don't care.<br>

I don't know why I keep on calling, doesn't get us anywhere.<br>

Cuz every time I try to speak, it never let my words come out.<br>

I can't turn the other cheek, and I can't help how this comes out.<br>

<br>

So when did you decide, to embrace what you hate to survive?<br>

Cuz that's not what got us here.<br>

<br>

Honestly,<br>

I don't know how you could see, something you once thought of me.<br>

Just another volunteer...<br>

<br>

To wonder if you ever lie awake in bed and think about the things you said.<br>

Your dedication shows but you can't see, your eyes are closed.<br>

And all the promises you made to me,<br>

They seem to fade and leave me with this disappointment that these words can never show.<br>

<br>

When your ride is over, and your hanging by a thread.<br>

As your house of cards is falling, just remember what I said.<br>

<br>

So when did you decide, to embrace what you hate to survive?<br>

Cuz that's not what got us here.<br>

<br>

And honestly,<br>

I don't know how you could see, something you once thought of me.<br>

Just another volunteer, for you to bleed.<br>

<BR><BR>
