Only the truth
She reckoned she owed
Only the truth
She reckoned she owes
The way she walks
Is scripted and taught
Don't give her an eye
She snipered your mind
See by her hands
That she's been there before
She lifts up her glass
As if to bring down a mess
Only the truth
She reckoned she owes
Only the truth
She reckoned she owes
Climbing the stairs
As if to follow her there
Her golden lace boots
May stop your right there
Hands on your arm
She greets all your friends
Twist of a lime
It seems a bitter end
Only the truth
She reckoned she owes
Only the truth
She reckoned she owes
The girl with many
Different strategies
Wakes the wolves
To curse them
To their knees
She's in the one
By the riverbank
So it's easier for her
To drown you
And she claims
Oh, she claims
It's only the truth
She holds in her hands
It's only the truth
She holds in her hands
