lyrics

Further From the Truth
(Adam Dalton)

My friends they tell me not to spin my wheels
They say “You played the hand you were dealt it doesn’t matter how you feel”
But no nothings further from the truth
So I followed my heart cross a barren land
Handed it to a vulture who spat it in the sand
That’s the god’s honest truth

The kids at school told be Santa ain’t real
That I misplaced my faith in Jesus
To join the Navy Seals
But no nothing could be further from the truth
I said “What do I know about fighting a war?”
I worked in grocery til’ I was 24
That’s the god’s honest truth

I swear to God O.J.’s an innocent man
That’s what I told the Judge when I took the stand
But no nothing could be further from the truth
I told the jury “Use your imagination”.
They locked me in a cell for withholding information
That’s the god’s honest truth

If you are looking for truth and justice he just flew away
He left me here drowning so he could save Lois Lane
But man no hard feelings what’s a guy to do?
It’s every man’s dream to be just like Sup’

I used to think you’d never tell a lie
But you’re no Washington and neither am I
That’s the truth
That’s the God’s honest truth
That’s the truth
