The Truth Is Painful Lyrics & Tabs by Bap Kennedy
The Truth Is Painful
guitar chords lyrics
Down in the valley, somebody's getting ready for a kill
And on the street the marching feet send echoes thru the chill
And I'm tryin' my best to get drunk, because I am unable
To entertain the thought of being sober, and the truth is painful
The light was gone
I heard a song
Come drifting from the park
And round a fire, a drunken choir
Sang softly in the dark
And for a while I felt secure
Like Jesus in the cradle
But I know, I've always known
The truth is painful
The word came round you been found, face-down on a street
And so I went to pay respect, and watch your mother weep
The truth is painful
The word came round you been found, face-down on a street
And so I went to pay respect, and watch your mother weep
She cried so hard she almost died, I turned away and I was grateful
I was glad it wasn't me, and the truth is painful
I was glad it wasn't me, an' the truth is painful
But the truth will set you free
The truth is painful
The truth is painful
The truth is painful
The truth is painful
The truth is painful
