The Truth

The Truth

Today some divers found that old 68.
I watched the news as they pulled it from the lake
The sheriff said right now we don't have any clues.
I guess only me and Tommy know the truth

Sarah Hopkins was the homecoming queen.
At any given time, she was wearing mine or Tommy's ring
Folks said he won that fight because I lost a tooth.
I guess only me and Tommy know the truth

They say that it can set you free,
That hasn't been the case for me
I've been a prisoner of a secret since my youth
And only me and Tommy know the truth

One night I went to pick up Sarah for a date.
She'd been crying and she tried to hide her face
She said she fell that's why her eyes were black and blue.
I guess only me and Bobby know the truth
That night I swore that I was going to make things right
I needed help and only one name came to mind
That boy who said, "I'll always love her more than you."
That's why only me and Bobby know the truth.

They say that it can set you free,
That hasn't been the case for me
I've been a prisoner of a secret since my youth
And only me and Bobby know the truth


Sarah's Father was a bully when he drank.
And, we were waiting when he passed out by the lake
We put him in his car and pushed him to his tomb
That’s why only we know the truth.
