I Can't Lie Anymore Lyrics & Tabs by John Wetton
I Can't Lie Anymore
guitar chords lyrics
Mama said it would be alright
Keeping it all to myself
Johnny's secrets would stay out of sight
If they all could stay on the shelf Papa swore he'd lose his temper
If I breathed a word to a soul
And that no-one would remember
Or believe the stories I told I've been living an illusion
And things are going from bad to worse
It seems there's only one solution
But the truth is going to hurt Oh Oh Oh
I can't lie anymore Mama never did apologize
When I always shouldered the blame
Papa's defense was to terrorize
And I burned with anger and shame I've got to come out once and scream it
Got to say what's on my mind
Papa's defense was to terrorize
And I burned with anger and shame I've got to come out once and scream it
Got to say what's on my mind
Got to rage and shout and mean it
I don't like to be unkind, But I can't lie, no I can't lie anymore Only darkness and confusion
Lie behind the bedroom door
I'd like to say that it's been some fun
But the damage is done
I don't want this anymore...
