Truth kills everybody and lies can lead your mind into Open doors protect nobody Once inside you can't get through Eyes are closed like cameras, shutting out important light What you really risk is only what you know by sight Truth kills Truth kills Hiding from the mountains and the mountains hiding you Burning burning, burning sunset Only glad to Eyes are closed like cameras, shutting out important light What you really risk is only what you know by sight Truth kills Truth kills Take a look at my new toy It will blow you head in two oh boy It will take you down on peagasue (?) Truths kills everybody and lies can lead your mind into Open doors protect nobody Once inside you can't get through Eyes are closed like cameras, shutting out important light What you really risk is only what you know by sight Truth kills Truth kills Hiding from the mountains and the mountains hiding you Burning burning, burning sunset Only glad to Eyes are closed like cameras, shutting out important light What you really risk is only what you know by sight Truth kills Truth kills
