Artist: marianne faithfull
Song: truth
Where did it go to my youth?
Where did it slip away to?
Who was it told the truth - the bitter truth?
The truth we didn't want to know.
What is it do you know? What is it
can't bear it?
Who did it - do I care?
Who is it - when did it happen and where?
Why did you let me know?
How could you think I'd stand it?
You know I'd pay you back
I did it and it happened - do you care?
Where did it go to my youth? . . .
Who is he - do you know?
This man of power but a fool
They said he was so high and pure
They also said he was cruel.
They killed him
did you see?
They knew he couldn't take it.
They wanted lies - he told the truth
They did it - and it happened - who cares.
Where did it go to my youth? . . .
Why did you let me know . . .
What is it - do you know? . . .
Who is it - do you know?
What is it - can I bear it?
Who did it - do I care?
Who is it - when did it happen and where?
Where did it go to my youth? . . .
