    i heard the truth about u

    and it doesn't really read at all
    like the whippin stick u raised me with
    scared woman in a private hell
    hush voice like electric bells

    strange talk about edgar casey
    and the long lame walk of the dark 70

    strange talk about edgar casey
    and the long lame walk of the dark 70

    i heard the truth about u
    yeah u
    mama they woke me up
    i was deep in an idiot sleep
    i was just eight
    why they have to call my school
    tell me my mother had a nervous breakdown

    i wish i believed like u do
    yeah u
    in the myth of a merciful god
    in the myth of a heaven and hell
    i hear the voices u hear sometimes
    sometimes it gets so hard i feel like letting it all go

    i ran away and went looking for u
    back to culver city and old neighboor hood
    need to know if u were really gone
    need to know if u were gone for good
    i ran through the projects at night
    hide in the dark from my friends in the light
    hide from my brother in law
    hide from the things he'd said
    said u weren't loosing ur mind
    yeah said u just needed to rest
    said u'd be comin home soon
    said the doctors there would know what's best
    said maybe i could go live with them for a while

    i heard the truth about u
    i heard the truth about

    that is basicly the song
    it's not all but that is the gist
    i love that song
