The Everly Brothers - Truth Decay

 

You?ve got me worried now
It makes me feel somehow
As if the world is gonna break
I come up short on breath
It?s like I?m scared to death
That I might make a bold mistake
I?ve grown accustomed to the comfort
Nothin? heavy on my plate
Come to see myself as free at last
But now I just don?t feel that great
I can?t love you like I want to
When it depends on what I don?t do
And every chance to see the real you
Or to feel you
Slip away
Is truth decay
It throws me off my game
And nothin? feels the same
I get so dizzy I can?t think
I dig down deep in doubt
Until there?s no way out
I?m just so dizzy on the brink
I?d like to think I make a difference
As if indeed I ever could
It was always up to you girl
And this I never understood
I can?t love you like I want to
If it comes down to what I don?t do
And every chance to see the real you
Or to feel you
Slip away
Is truth decay
I can?t love you with my hands tied
Walking barefoot down a landslide
If I can?t be there when you need me
Do you read me
When I say
It?s a truth decay
