Bill Mallonee - After All The Telling Gets Told lyrics

Why does it hurt, why does it ache? All the stammering and the stumbling same old mistakes Building up lies, breaking of hearts In that shabby little side the one you never thought 'Till the curtains fall and credits all roll There's big money to be made on the small story sold All of the telling gets told Now with all of the twist and all of the turns And all of the crash and all of the burns And all of the heartache soon to be forgot When it all comes together or maybe not 'Till the curtain falls and credits all roll 'Till all of your dross gets turned to gold And all of the telling gets told Find yourself standing out there in the rain With your own personal gold-plated ball and chain The cameras, they're all alive, they can tell you all You're a**embling the footage of your own rise and fall And you hope that life wins out over d**h Sure it is your last prayer but you ain't holding your breath You hope that goodness will one day shine bright And you hope that justice gets a word in edgewise Through all of the storms and all of life's bad weather Now all of the I love yous dead and gone forever Before it all fades to black and they turn off the sound Forgive all that I gave up and all that I let down 'Till the curtain falls and credits all roll 'Till all of your dross gets turned to gold And all of the telling gets told
