TRUTH? (ORIGINAL VERSION)
(Collen/Elliott/Savage/Campbell)

Why don t you tell me what s behind the green door
Why don t you tell me, cause I heard it all before
You know the answers, got em under lock and key
So why don t you tell me, end this misery

You re a dagger in my side, stripped of all my pride
I listen at you lie
Gonna raise my hand, it s time to make a stand
A voice across the land
Demands

Why don t you tell me the truth
Why don t you tell me the truth

Why don t you tell me, you got things to say
Why don t you do it, gonna throw it all away
Why don t you hear me, when I shout it out so loud
How do you sleep at night with your head up in the clouds

You re the devil in disguise, I m sick of all your lies
Your hints and alibi s
Gonna raise my hand, it s time to take a stand
A voice across the land
Demands

Why don t you tell me the truth
So I can say I ve got a question
Now listen

Can you tell me what the hell is happening
Why the sky is falling
And the heart is calling
And the youth is stalling
And it s over and over again

Come on, come on, come on
You gotta tell me the truth
You don t listen, do ya
The left hand gives
And the right hand takes away
That s the law of the jungle
But you have to learn to play

Why don t you tell me the truth
You better tell me the truth
Come on, why don t you tell me the truth
You gotta tell me the truth

You try with all your might
You never get it right
Can t see the morning light
Was never in your sight

Just like the truth
