Patty Griffin - Truth (#1) lyrics

World of pain I try in vain to stand in the mist, the smoke and the stain the brittle years too full of tears all this crying out yeah nobody gives a damn All these hungry women all these hungry men All these angry children what do you do with them? Oh world of pain oh world of pain lying lying in a world of pain say it don't feel like the truth when we're together baby ohhhhhh it don't feel like the truth when we're together yeah ohhhhhh You're over there in your chair no touching allowed so I only stare But I do not believe oh I am not deceived I'll be banging again to the sound of the rain All of these hungry feelings all of these angry feelings set in motion goes into angry oceans World of pain world of pain lying lying in the world of pain say it don't feel like the truth when we're together baby ohhhhh it don't feel like the truth when we're together yeah ohhhh Son of a b**h has stole my boat locked the chain around my throat threw the ball out in the moat wave goodbye and hope it floats do I scream a little louder? do I scream a little louder? Should I scream a little louder, baby? Yeah Day was quiet as the night I was standing every day Promised I'd stay out of sight promised I'd feel and never say Do I scream a little louder? Should I scream a little louder? Do I scream a little louder, baby? Yeahh Sit on the shore waiting for someday sit in the cold waiting for one day I do not believe I do not believe oh lying lying in the world of pain World of pain world of pain Lying lying in the world of pain It don't feel like the truth when we're together It don't feel like the truth when we're together It don't feel like the truth when we're together It don't feel like the truth when we're together
