Les paroles de la chanson
« The truth »
Bad Religion

Madness takes its toll on me
Stale thoughts of what should be
Stupid lies used to comfort me
Wishing things that don’t work make sense

I used to be a man of principle
No true believer never troubled
But now I stagnate on mundane things
Always concerned with what tomorrow brings

And these thoughts are a dream
A dream that’s remained in the head
And destroys what I’ve said
And corrodes my will until I’m almost dead
The light flickers on, although not for long
The world turns away and restores a new day
The sun never dies and a new baby cries
I’ve searched my whole life with inquisitive eyes
But I realise now I’ll never find it
And I don’t think the gods are going to show it
Because I realise now I’ll never find the Truth

The Truth

What’s in our mind between two living things?
What natural law can control such things?
Are these the questions that motivate you?
What is the force that tells you what to do?

Well it might as well be a dream
A dream that remains in your head
And corrodes what you’ve said
And destroys your thoughts until you’re almost dead
The light flickers on, although not for long
The world turns away and restores a new day
The sun never dies and a new baby cries
I’ve searched my whole life with inquisitive eyes
But I realise now I’ll never find it
And I don’t think the gods are going to show it
Because I realise now I’ll never find the Truth

The Truth, the Truth
