Truth Begins

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This is where the truth begins Where teardrops glance the sallow skin You lose your will And I can lend you mine The Westway wall's so tall and bleak Reflect the words we dare not speak By the bottle's end We may have done our time [Pre-Chorus] What you want is to stay away from people like me Who twist most everything they see And leave the gray old world behind you [Chorus] So sow it up, kid, have some clout We'll do some wine and fall about The sun will shine again tomorrow Whoa, oh, oh, we'll look beyond the parapet We are just bums lest you forget We can beg, steal and borrow [Verse 2] Well, you say the pills will sort me out Embolden me against The manifestations of fear and doubt I just forgot who I used to be So, now I'm strung Somewhere between a dream And the humdrum day to day routine A laurel wreath on the door to my heart [Pre-Chorus] What you want is to wash your face and try to breathe Forget your mind and shut your eyes so that you can see And leave the gray old world behind you [Chorus] So sow it up, kid, have no doubt We'll walk the line and have it out The sun will shine again tomorrow Oh, oh, oh, for all the friends you've ever met Some you'll love and some forget Just hold on for tomorrow [Bridge] So here's to now, and all of us With our sweet hearts we tried to make a brand new start May the fabric never tear us apart And some day when, we're in the cold Here's a semblance we can hope So pick a posy and put it on your heart for me [Pre-Chorus] So, now I'm blue, and if you're in It wouldn't hurt just to give it a try and win Don 't forget who you're meant to be What you want is to get a bike and do wheelies But I bet you can't do 'em half as good as me Throw it out; when it's over, it's over [Chorus] So sow it up, kid, have some clout We'll go to mine and sulk about How the sun will shine tomorrow Whoa, oh, oh, for all the friends you've not yet met Some would die for you, I'll bet So hold on for tomorrow Whoa, oh, oh, So sow it up, kid, have some clout We'll go to mine and fuck about The sun will shine again tomorrow Whoa, oh, oh, For all friends you've not yet met Some would die for you, I bet So hold on for tomorrow Whoa, oh, oh! [Outro] This is where the truth begins For more than seven deadly sins And even though I may have hurt your mind
