Choking On The Truth lyrics

Sucking on a sucker
running down the alley
away from worthlessness.
It s dusk.
The lovely, pink sky eggs me on.
Thinking of you,
I roll this candy on my tongue.
I throw a rock in the air,
but it doesn t go anywhere.
(like my spinning wheels)
Reminiscent of this sugar lump,
it seems to be lodged in the centre of my throat.

Choking on the truth.
I thought it was my candy,
but I m choking on the truth.

Discreetly I try to cough it out,
try to scream and shout.
Everchanging flights of ideas,
my life is surely
flashing right before my eyes.
You have a way. You startle me.
I laugh. I face reality.
This is a pill of strong will
and, as you intended,
so hard to swallow.

Choking on the truth.
I thought it was my candy,
but I m choking on the truth.

I am honesty, and this is hard.
You were everything I ever want.
Your memory is sweet candy,
the flavors fading away...

Sucking on a sucker
running down the alley.
Running over all the things I could have done differently.
You were mean to me.
I didn t mean to be so real
and pure
and simple
and honest
and you make me sad.
You make me mad.
You re making me choke!

Choking on the truth.
I thought it was my candy,
but I m choking on the truth.

Choking on the truth.
I thought it was my candy,
but I m choking on the truth.
