Truth Be Told

This is the first tale of death in the world

When Cain struck down Abel, a family broken

Since then mankind's dominated his own kind

To insult and injure, there's no such thing as peace

Till death do us part

Till the last, truth be told - Sin lies at the doorway

Truth be told - Hell's open for business now

Truth be told - The soil cries out for revenge

Truth be told - And death is upon the ground, all around

The battle ain't over without spoils of war

Just 'cause it is written does not make it so

When you dance with the devil wait till the song's over

I ask myself, "How bad do I want you to live?"

My anger is near

Till the last, truth be told - Sin lies at the doorway

Truth be told - Hell's open for business now

Truth be told - The soil cries out for revenge

Truth be told - And death is upon the ground

Truth be told - Sin lies at the doorway

Truth be told - Hell's open for business now

Truth be told - The soil cries out for revenge

Truth be told - And death is upon the ground, all around

Tribulation strikes and we're hit hard

Still you just go on your way

Head in the sand, ignoring the rain

Just like the flood in Noah's day

In his day

Can't punish those ruining the earth

It's suicide to some degree

Because we are all guilty, guilty as sin

There will be no peace, never for you and for me

Before al Qaeda and Bin Laden

Long before Hitler and Hussein

Ever since the first murder was committed

The verdict's always been the same

Been the same, wrong!

The cursed future just repeats the past

There's hell to pay and stones to cast

So, there will be no peace, never be peace

Till the last truth be told by you and me
