Truth Be Told Lyrics


This is the first tale of death in the world
When Cain struck down Abel a family broken
Since then mankind's dominated his own kind
To insult and injured there's no such thing as peace
Till death do us part
Till the last
(Truth be told)
Sin lies at the doorway
(Truth be told)
Hell's open for business now
(Truth be told)
The soil cries out for revenge
(Truth be told)
And death is upon the ground, all around
The battle ain't over without spoils of war
Just 'cause it is written does not make it so
When you dance with the Devil wait till the song's over
I ask myself how bad do I want you to live

My anger is near
Till the last
(Truth be told)
Sin lies at the doorway
(Truth be told)
Hell's open for business now
(Truth be told)
The soil cries out for revenge
(Truth be told)
And death is upon the ground
(Truth be told)
Sin lies at the doorway
(Truth be told)
Hell's open for business now
(Truth be told)
The soil cries out for revenge
(Truth be told)
And death is upon the ground, all around
Tribulation strikes and we're hit hard
Still you just go on your way
Head in the sand, ignoring the rain
Just like the flood in Noah's day
(In his day)
Can't punish those for ruining the earth
It's suicide so don't worry
Because we are all guilty, guilty as sin
There'll be no peace, never for you and me
Before Al Qaeda and Bin Laden
Long before Hitler and Hussein
Ever since the first murder was committed
The verdict's always been the same
(Been the same, wrong)
Because the future just repeats the past
There's hell to pay, the stone's been cast
So there'll be no peace
(Never be peace)
Till the last truth be told for you and me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Harlequin Jones rebel against any easy categorization, calling the songs roughly "piano punk, and blues." Some onlookers also consider them as the cult genre dark cabaret. 
The music mixes catchy dark pop hooks with lush, low female vocals. Once considered an art experiment, Harlequin Jones have honed their originality and skill into something more tangible. Amanda von Loon's trashy elegance on piano along with rich, lush, deep vocals compliment Jesse Arcadio's part jazz-master part scrap metal machine drummings to result in a synergy of moxie, chemistry and talent.
