Hello! Say what? Oh yeah? Too much.

What's new? What's up? I here you're messed up, in trouble, in pain

No need to explain - Expectation let you down

See yourself inside - When it gets real do you hide?

Can you face them or do they chase you down

How it could be and how it is - What it should be and what it is

Just another version of the big fat truth

Mind the gap, see the distance - It's the blueprint of resistance

Try to get your point across and it gets knocked back

Confrontation - static

Intimidation - panic

Eye to eye and wall to wall

Can you see what's here? Does it fill you with fear?

Can you keep your distance from what you hate?

Unbelievable, unreal, too shocked to feel

Look out! Mind the gap!



The truth ain't nothin' but the truth



Oh no! You don't say! They don't see it your way?

In the dark everyone was just like you

Now you're mad, uptight because the world's not right

You don't think and it makes you sad

Attitude affected, your way - rejected

Stupidity to get you through

Check out the gap that's all around you

Try to get close, it astounds you

How these people can be so relentlessly cold



Too easy, so blind. Too tough to be kind

Man, you're like some guy in a comic book

Get real, pull your head out

Get up, and get the lead out

Man, I know you can do better than that

Yeah you could stay away from arms length away from life

But it takes strength to get up close and go all the way live

Bridge the gap, take the first step

The more you go, the more you get

Down with the program and on with the show



The truth ain't nothin' but the truth
