Truth Lyrics


Wake up, there's nobody home
There's nobody you can show
The sword you pulled out of the stone
Somebody took them away
Every morning you forget
Like your memory's erased
Too many days turning into nights
Too many wrongs turning into rights
Searching for a reason to escape
It's easy when the truth just walks away
Neighbors won't look you in the eye
There goes old man Billy Joe
Can't believe he's still alive
Carries an old bag of bones
He's always talking to himself
Doesn't know that he's alone
Too many days turning into nights
Too many wrongs turning into rights

Searching for a reason to escape
It's easy when the truth just walks away
Went to the river to lie
Found my body on the ground
Found my home up in the sky
There's no more to life than a day
Took me buried in the ground
Now you'll never hear me say
Too many days turning into nights
Too many wrongs turning into rights
Searching for a reason to escape
It's easy when the truth just walks away
Too many days turning into nights
Too many wrongs turning into rights
Searching for a reason to escape
It's easy when the truth just walks, walk on
It just walks away

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Dirty Streets are a young band from the Memphis area who have no fear of bathing in their proto-punk and soul roots. Their album Portrait of a Man is an obvious product of digging on the likes of MC5, Rolling Stones, James Brown, Cactus, Humble Pie & the Faces. "Portrait of a Man is a straight classic-rock facsimile, but played with such energy, enthusiasm, and skill that the band makes this more-generalized sound their own........the rough, menacing guitar tone is matched by vocals that growl and bark beyond their age." - Chris Herrington (Memphis Flyer)
