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
|
