Cold Gray Light of Dawn lyrics

That endless light

Casts only one shadow

The cold grey light

By the penthouse on the ghetto

Kill the other witness

Knife plunged to the hilt

The unforgiven dawn

Will only spotlight your guilt

In the cold grey light of dawn

You can't lie to yourself anymore

In the cold grey light of dawn

You can't hide the truth

Hide the truth anymore

You call up Emmy

You've rehearsed the lines

But she knows about Judy

She knows you're lying

Put your foot in it, yeah

It's getting caught

Leave it in long enough, yeah

It starts to rot

In the cold grey light of dawn

You can't lie to yourself anymore

In the cold grey light of dawn

You can't hide the truth

Hide the truth anymore

No matter what you did

No matter who you are

In the fading light

From a middle aged star

You've seen every blemish

Every sign of age

And it's useless to whine

And it's useless to rage

In the cold grey light of dawn

You can't lie to yourself anymore

In the cold grey light of dawn

You can't hide the truth

Hide the truth anymore

Cold grey light of dawn

You can't lie to yourself anymore

In the cold grey light of dawn

You can't hide the truth

Hide the truth anymore

Hide the truth

Anymore

Hide the truth anymore
