may come by day
may come by the fall of the night
may come by the moonlit light
the truth that kills
could be your conscious talking
could be a killer stalking
could be the path you're walking
the truth that kills
could sing a lullaby
could sing an evil lie
could still a baby's cry
the truth that kills
will fill an empty glass
will spill a drunkard's last
will foil the simplest task
the truth that kills
the truth that kills
could make a lot of money
make you call people honey
the truth that kills
the truth that kills
can make you feel kind of funny
make your nose kind of runny
the truth that kills
turns love to hate
turns feather into weight
turns reason from it's gaze
the truth that kills
hits you when you're down and troubled
hits you when you've swayed and stumbled
the truth that kills
