Truth Begins Lyrics - Dirty Pretty Things

This is where the truth begins 

Where teardrops glance the sallow skin 

You lose your will 

And I can lend you mine 

The Westway walls so tall and bleak 

Reflect the words we dare not speak 

By the bottles end 

We may have done our time 

What you want is to stay away from people like me 

Who twist most everything they see 

And leave the gray old world behind you 

So sow it up, kid, have some clout 

Well do some wine and fall about 

The sun will shine again tomorrow 

Oh, oh, oh, well look beyond the parapet 

We are just bums lest you forget 

We can beg, steal and borrow 

Well, you say the pills will sort me out 

Embolden me against 

The manifestations of fear and doubt 

I just forgot who I used to be 

So, now Im strung 

Somewhere between a dream 

And the humdrum day to day routine 

A laurel wreath on the door to my heart 

What you want is to wash your face and try to breathe 

Forget your mind and shut your eyes so that you can see 

And leave the gray old world behind you 

So sow it up, kid, have no doubt 

Well walk the line and have it out 

The sun will shine again tomorrow 

Oh, oh, oh, for all the friends you've ever met 

Some youll love and some forget 

Just hold on for tomorrow 

So heres to now and all of us 

With our sweet hearts we tried to make a brand new start 

May the fabric never tear us apart 

And some day when we're in the cold 

Here's a semblance we can hope 

So pick a posy and put it on your heart for me 

So, now I move and if youre in 

It wouldnt hurt just to give it a try and win 

Dont forget who you're meant to be 

What you want is to get a bike and do wheelies 

But I bet you cant do em half as good as me 

Throw it out when it's over, it's over 

So sow it up, kid, have some clout 

Well go to mine and sulk about 

How the sun will shine tomorrow 

For all the friends youve not yet met 

Some would die for you, Ill bet 

So hold on for tomorrow 

So sow it up, kid, have some clout 

We'll go to mine and fuck about 

The sun will shine again tomorrow 

For all friends you've not yet met 

Some would die for you, I bet 

So hold on for tomorrow 

This is where the truth begins 

For more than seven deadly sins 

And even though 

I may have hurt your mind
