The Real Truth Songtext
von Roxanne Potvin
The Real Truth Songtext
I thought I was careful
You made it look so safe
I covered my bases
Wouldn′t give it all away
I was under your spell
Didn't notice the lies
Even as they fell
Right in front of my eyes
Clever words you would say
With your charms on parade
How′d you get so good at playing that game?
Out of the darkness
Your guilty conscience caught up with you
Now I'm alone with the real truth
We had conversations
But you never spoke to me
Your cloudy intentions
Wrapped in a mystery
Can't you level with me
Open up, let me see
Are you trying to be who I want you to be?
You can′t play me for long
I know there′s something wrong
Words all stop at the tip of your tongue
Out of the darkness
Your guilty conscience caught up with you
Now I'm alone with the real truth
Oh what a relief
Oh what a release
You spit it out on me
Now you′re begging on your knees
So how can I believe
You'll take good care of me
When all I can see
Is a man confused and weak
Out of the darkness
Your guilty conscience caught up with you
Now I′m alone with the real truth
You made it look so safe
I covered my bases
Wouldn′t give it all away
I was under your spell
Didn't notice the lies
Even as they fell
Right in front of my eyes
Clever words you would say
With your charms on parade
How′d you get so good at playing that game?
Out of the darkness
Your guilty conscience caught up with you
Now I'm alone with the real truth
We had conversations
But you never spoke to me
Your cloudy intentions
Wrapped in a mystery
Can't you level with me
Open up, let me see
Are you trying to be who I want you to be?
You can′t play me for long
I know there′s something wrong
Words all stop at the tip of your tongue
Out of the darkness
Your guilty conscience caught up with you
Now I'm alone with the real truth
Oh what a relief
Oh what a release
You spit it out on me
Now you′re begging on your knees
So how can I believe
You'll take good care of me
When all I can see
Is a man confused and weak
Out of the darkness
Your guilty conscience caught up with you
Now I′m alone with the real truth
