Into the Truth lyrics

The remains of the weekend laid about the place
I went out looking for some sympathy
I returned from the deep end with my mind erased
I found a stranger, lying in the bed, right next to me
Where did she come from? How did we meet?
Her hair spilled like a suicide, out onto the sheets
I found her name next to a number on the back of a receipt
She came out of nowhere

Time doesn't wait for anybody
And I’m talking to myself like it's you
I didn't mean to hurt nobody
I took the lies and stretched them into the truth

Vaguely, I remember
After having a few
Stumbling down the sewers
Of second avenue
There was c*cktails, a cover charge
Loud music, and lights
And some trouble from those knowing
They’re going home alone tonight
I heard a man's voice come from the corridor
Followed by a sharp knock on the door
He said: "I know that you're in there"
"We've been through this before"
I scrambled to find my clothes on the floor
Time doesn't wait for anybody
And I'm talking to myself like it's you
I didn't mean to hurt nobody
I took the lies and stretched them into the truth

And time doesn’t wait for anybody
And I’m talking to myself like it's you
I didn’t mean to hurt nobody
I took the lies and stretched them into the truth

And time doesn't wait for anybody
And I'm not looking for an excuse
And I used to want to be somebody
I took the lies and stretched them into the truth
