Lyrics
The Moment Of Truth
By Maren Orion
Don?t tell me no lies about the way that you?re feeling
I can see it in your eyes and babe, It?s not appealing
You?re making your plans now and they don?t include me
It?s that moment of truth on this we can agree
I?ve been feeling something going on for quite some time
It?s like a hole in my heart or a worry on my mind
Or like the mountain that crumbles down into the sea
Things are always changing, you don?t care about me
It was a good ride baby, but we lost our way
We had a lot of fun but then we ran out of things to say
I don?t have a lot of time to waste, so I?m gonna make it clear
Disappointment is my stepping stone to a new frontier
Let's not talk about the things that might have been
The future is uncertain as the direction of the wind
Where it will carry me tomorrow depends on my attitude
I?ll take whatever fortune comes my way with gratitude
My life?s been full of losses, my life?s been full of gains
I prefer the pleasure, but I?ve learned more from the pain
It's the lies we tell ourselves that hurt in the worst way
In the moment of truth when you just can't run away
