Staind - The Truth lyrics
[Staind - The Truth lyrics]
It's 3 AM, it's cold outside
And you can't sleep
Is it from your conscience talking
To the skeletons you keep
Every time you try to speak
Only craziness comes out
But she can't turn the other cheek
And you can't help how it comes out
So when did you decide
To embrace what you hate to survive?
'Cause that's not what got us here
It's 8 AM and still no sleep
But you don't care
I don't know why I keep on calling
Doesn't get us anywhere
'Cause every time I try to speak
You never let my words come out
I can't turn the other cheek
And I can't help how this comes out
So when did you decide
To embrace what you hate to survive?
'Cause that's not what got us here
Honestly i don't know how you could see
Something you once saw in me
Just another volunteer
To wonder if you ever lie awake in bed
And think about the things you said
Your dedication shows
But you can't see, your eyes are closed
And all the promises you made to me
They seem to fade and leave me
With this disappointment
That these words could never show
When your ride is over
And you're hanging by a thread
As your house of cards is falling
Just remember what I said
So when did you decide
To embrace what you hate to survive?
'Cause that's not what got us here
And honestly i don't know how you could see
Something you once saw in me
Just another volunteer for you to bleed
And you can't sleep
Is it from your conscience talking
To the skeletons you keep
Every time you try to speak
Only craziness comes out
But she can't turn the other cheek
And you can't help how it comes out
So when did you decide
To embrace what you hate to survive?
'Cause that's not what got us here
It's 8 AM and still no sleep
But you don't care
I don't know why I keep on calling
Doesn't get us anywhere
'Cause every time I try to speak
You never let my words come out
I can't turn the other cheek
And I can't help how this comes out
So when did you decide
To embrace what you hate to survive?
'Cause that's not what got us here
Honestly i don't know how you could see
Something you once saw in me
Just another volunteer
To wonder if you ever lie awake in bed
And think about the things you said
Your dedication shows
But you can't see, your eyes are closed
And all the promises you made to me
They seem to fade and leave me
With this disappointment
That these words could never show
When your ride is over
And you're hanging by a thread
As your house of cards is falling
Just remember what I said
So when did you decide
To embrace what you hate to survive?
'Cause that's not what got us here
And honestly i don't know how you could see
Something you once saw in me
Just another volunteer for you to bleed
