lyrics

I can't take you anywhere 'cos you won't leave.
I can't tell you anything 'cos you don't believe me.
And that's the hard, the hard damn truth.

I can't give you anything 'cos you don't need.
Just running round and round
A pleasing soul, defeated.
And that's the hard, the hard damn truth.
Hey,now.

Can we break down the walls?
Tell me, whats it going to take?
Can we break down the walls?

I can't take you anywhere 'cos you won't leave.
I can't tell you anything 'cos you don't believe it.
And that's the hard, the hard damn truth.
Hey,now. That's the hard, the hard damn truth.

I can't see you anymore 'cos this ain't real.
I'll be be walking out that door.
Let's see if you believe it.
And that's the hard, the hard damn truth.

Predictably, lead guitars get their place to shine all over Lion Drome songs. Get your headphones! ... more
