The Truth Be Told

The Truth Be Told
Music And Lyrics By Peter Link

If You Write
No One Reads It
If You Call
There Is No One Listening
If You Go
There Is No One There To See

Something Is Hap’nin’ To The World
Something Beyond Control
Its A Wonder That Anything Works At All
An’ It’s Time That The Truth Be Told

I Don’t Know Why It’s Gone This Way
I’ve Done All A Man Can Do
I Scream And I Cry I Plead I Pray
But Nothin’ I Say Gets Through

Cause They All Leave Me Holdin’ On The Line
An’ The Hours They Slip On By
An’ The Number They’re Doin’ On My Mind
Is Tearin’ Me Up Inside

If You Ask
No One Answers
If You Wait
It’s A Waste Of Your Time
If You Beg
There Is Nothing They Can Do

I Don’t Know Why It’s Gone This Way
I’ve Done All A Man Can Do
I Scream And I Cry I Plead I Pray
But Nothin’ I Say Gets Through

Cause They All Leave Me
Holdin’ On The Line
An’ The Hours They Slip On By
An’ The Number They’re Doin’ On My Mind
Is Tearin’ Me Up Inside

An’ Millions Of People Sit And Stare
As The World Keeps Them All On Hold
It’s A Hopelessness More Than We Can Bear
An’ It’s Time That The Truth Be Told

Cause I Tried An’ I Tried An’ I Tried
An’ I Tried To Explain
Though I Tried An’ I Tried An’ I Tried
It Was All In Vain

Cause Nobody Cares If I’m Alive
As Long As The Goods Are Sold
It’s All ‘Bout The Bucks An’ That’s No Jive
An’ It’s Time That The Truth Be Told

Then At Last
When They Finally Answer
They Don’t Know
What The Hell They’re Doin’
But They’ll Get Help
So They Put Me Back On Hold

Something Is Hap’nin’ To The World
Something Beyond Control
Its A Wonder That Anything Works At All
An’ It’s Time That The Truth Be Told

An’ Millions Of People Sit And Stare
As The World Keeps Them All On Hold
It’s A Hopelessness More Than We Can Bear
An’ It’s Time That The Truth Be Told
It’s Time That The Truth Be Told
Yes It’s Time That The Truth Be Told!!!
