The Hard Truth Songtext
von SLO

Clarity once came to speak
It unraveled in an earthly dream
I could see my life beneath
All the weight of wonder
At what I dared to see

Taking time to live the lie
Taking time to forge the alibi
Been looking hard to find a substitute
For the hard truth
For the hard truth I learned that burns again


I′ve lived in riddles and imitations of the truth
In plain sight of who I could be
And I'd take a bullet for you
I′ve held the promise of love
The detail of the shame
Now I carry 'round the burden of myself once again
Because

I'm taking time to live the lie
Taking time to forge the alibi
Been looking hard to find a substitute
For the hard truth
For the hard truth I learned that burns again

Oh, it burns, it burns again
Oh, it burns, it burns again
And it burns, it burns again
Oh, it burns, it burns again

Taking time to live the lie
Taking time to forge the alibi
Been looking hard to find a substitute
For the hard truth
For the hard truth I learned that burns again
