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
