[Alex Ebert - Truth lyrics]
Truth
The truth is that I never shook my shadow
Every day it's trying to trick
Me into doing battle
Calling out "faker" only get me rattled
Want to pull me back behind
The fence with the cattle
Building your lenses digging your trenches
Put me on the front line
Leave me with a dumb mind with no defenses
But, your defenses
If you can't stand to feel the
Pain then you are senseless since this
I've grown up some different kind of fighter
And when the darkness come let it inside you
Your darkness is shining
My darkness is shining have faith in myself
Truth
I've seen a million numbered
Doors on the horizon
Now which is the future you
Choosin' before you go dying
I'll tell you 'bout a secret
I've been undermining
Every little lie in this
World come from dividing
Say you're my lover, say you're my homie
Tilt my chin back, slit my throat
Take a bath in my blood, get to know me
All out of my secrets
All my enemies are turning into my teachers
Because lights blinding
No way dividing what's yours or mine
When everything's shining
Your darkness is shining
My darkness is shining
Have faith in ourselves truth
Yes, I'm only loving
Only trying to only love and, yes
And what I'm trying to do is only loving
Yes, I'm only loving, trying to only love
I swear to God, I'm only trying to be loving
Yes, I'm only lonely loving
Yes, I'm only feeling only loving
Only loving
You say it ain't loving, ain't loving
Ain't loving, my loving
But, I'm only loving, still only loving
Swear to god, I'm only loving
Trying to be loving, loving
Loving, loving, loving, loving
Yes I'm only loving, yes, trying to only love
I swear to god
I'm trying but I'm only loving
You say it ain't loving, ain't loving
Ain't loving
Ain't loving, ain't loving my loving
But, I'm only loving, loving, loving
Loving the truth
Truth
The truth is that I never shook my shadow
Every day it's trying to trick
Me into doing battle
Calling out "faker" only get me rattled
Want to pull me back behind
The fence with the cattle
Building your lenses digging your trenches
Put me on the front line
Leave me with a dumb mind with no defenses
But, your defenses
If you can't stand to feel the
Pain then you are senseless since this
I've grown up some different kind of fighter
And when the darkness come let it inside you
Your darkness is shining
My darkness is shining have faith in myself
Truth
I've seen a million numbered
Doors on the horizon
Now which is the future you
Choosin' before you go dying
I'll tell you 'bout a secret
