Truth On The Wire

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I kept the note on my tongue Like a coin I could not spend You said, "just let it slide" But it cuts through the end Black tea gone cold on the sill My hands still shaking, still No, I can't play dumb When the room goes chill [Pre-Chorus] Listen escucha Hear me plain The truth don't fold It stays in the frame Je te dis I ain't safe When you call it a game [Chorus] Freedom is gone Freedom is gone Say it out loud Say it out loud Please listen now Please listen now The truth is heavy The truth is loud Freedom is gone Freedom is gone No more pretend No more pretend I want the facts I want the facts Not just a song Not just a song [Verse 2] You smile like smoke in a glass But I see the crack in it Every promise you made Had a trap in it I learned your kind of calm It means the room gets small And I won't nod along Just to please you all [Pre-Chorus] Listen escucha Hear me plain The truth don't fold It stays in the frame Je te dis I ain't safe When you call it a game [Chorus] Freedom is gone Freedom is gone Say it out loud Say it out loud Please listen now Please listen now The truth is heavy The truth is loud Freedom is gone Freedom is gone No more pretend No more pretend I want the facts I want the facts Not just a song Not just a song [Bridge] I don't need a halo I need the door unchained I don't need a hero I need my name Dímelo claro Say it clean What they hid in the dark I already seen [Final Chorus] Freedom is gone Freedom is gone Say it out loud Say it out loud Please listen now Please listen now The truth is heavy The truth is loud Freedom is gone Freedom is gone No more pretend No more pretend I want the facts I want the facts Not just a song Not just a song
