Can't hold the truth anymore
Sharry Monks 1999 (Kampala)
Oh, that's what you never knew,
For the fact, for the reality
It ain't very easy to live,
For a period of time,
For a fleeting moment,
I can't hide....
The measurements I'm getting,
The futility behind it,
It's no longer inside me.
The moment you realize,
The simplicity of my induction,
That's why I can't hide....
Oh baby, here I come,
Surrounded by negligence,
Embedded with nothing in it,
The repercussions behind it,
I will never live without you
The only truth i can't hold anymore.
You kill me with kindness
And you tell me nothing
Whenever I get close to you,
And see you holding my hand tight,
Then you touch my waist,
And feel ice flowing slowly....
That kills me intimately
And for that,
I can't hold the anymore.
