The Truth

Tub Ring


My take of a complete picture
Has never been that long
I've done it right for so many years
Why is it suddenly wrong?
So glad you said so, so diplomatic
Glad you hinted at your views

You're pouring everything into a chance you could be right
When your eggs have broken there's a footnote to your plight

Your tone has never worked for me
And your word are elementary
But I'm suddenly faced with the things i erase
And it's harder each time to go along with this way
There is no lesson here and nothing's ever clear
So we do as we planned and we'll go hand in hand
But the truth is a thing that just can't say

And I think in metaphors
And do all I can
If I gave you a brief description
Then would you understand
So glad you said so, so diplomatic
Glad you hinted at your views
You've taken what you can while we all heard you complain
And you bear no fault in this from the memories you retain
