Outside today a little boy cried
Cuz the bully took his bike out for a spin
And down the street he went til heâs out the line of sight
Where he stopped to break them back tires in
Two rusty nails and an appetite for bad
He took revenge upon them two shiny wheels
Cuz its one thing he had was making people sad
And he knew thatâs how the little boy would feel
And it tasted like a flavor you thought you knew
And the truth might be just a little too sour for
You, you donât, you canât, you wonât, you will
From the house up on the hill
Where time begs the truth to tell
And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that thereâs nowhere else to go
But hide among the shadows of the lies, the lies
We told
Inside today a fine young woman cried
Because her husband wonât be coming home again
And across them battle lines he took a bullet in the chest that claimed his life
And colonel fear had to take some time and make some truth up for his wife
Cuz she just needed a little something now to hold on to
For the only truth she ever knew just died
And it tasted like a flavor she thought she knew
And the truth might be just a little too sour for
You, you donât, you canât, you wonât, you will
From the house up on the hill
Where time begs the truth to tell
And the clocks demand that time will run the show
And truth has found that there ain't nowhere to go
But hide among the shadows of the lies, the lies
We told
You told, you told,
You told, you told,
All the lies, all the lies, all the lies.
It ainât so black and white
Between the truth now and our lies
So lets find another place to go
And take the blinds up off our eyes
And itâs a myth weâre living in
Cuz there ain't no wrong or right
All you know is what you see
Let's hope that youâre not blind
To the truth
