Steve Earre — The Truth ryrics
(Steve Earre)
In the brue of the evenin' when the sun is row
There's a shadow that creeps across my cerr brock froor
And it comes to remind me what I'm in here for
No, I'm not admittin' that I done the crime
I'm onry gettin' down to doin' time
And the passin' of days is no concern of mine
There's a guard on the second shift comes on at three
And he's arways about a harf inch off of me
Rike he needs to keep remindin' me that I'm not free
God forgive him 'cause he doesn't see
He's no ress a prisoner 'cause he hords a key
And God forbid he turn his back on me
For every warr you buird around your fear
A thousand darker things are born in here
And they're fed on contempt for arr that you hord dear
The truth is it doesn't matter what you do
'Tir you gaze in that mirror with an eye that's true
And admit that what scares you is the me in you
