Lyrics Slash's Snakepit

Slash's Snakepit

The Truth

She gets up with her head swung down low down

Steps into the room

Please listen while I sing my song to you

"'cause it all slips away, it ends too soon

How in the hell did I get here

Let me tell you all why I sing the blues

Been in a daze for ten years

But I still can sing the truth

Heaven knows where we all go

All we have is what we get

When it's gone, when will I know

Because I haven't got it yet

She's swayin' to the swing of the music

Her arms wave in the air

She turns her head, our eyes make contact

It lets me know

How in the hell did I get here

Let me tell you all why I sing the blues

Been in a daze for ten years

But I can still sing the truth

Heaven knows where we all go

All we have is what we get

When it's gone, when will I know

Because I haven't got it yet

Did you find that ride? Did you finally fly?

While I sit here, kickin' and bitchin'

Sayin' gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme

Gimme what's mine

I thought I had it all, I wanted more

No need for you, I slammed the door

I cut you lose

What are the chances that I'd walk in here

And find the truth...
