Rodney Crowell - Truth Decay lyrics

You've got me worried now It makes me feel somehow As if the world is gonna break Oh, c'mon, short on breath It's like I'm scared to d**h That I might make a bold mistake I'd grown accustomed to the comfort Nothing heavy on my plate I've come to see myself as free at last But now I just don't feel that great I can't love you like I want to When it depends on what I don't do And every chance to see the real you Oughta feel you slip away, is truth decay? It throws me off my game And nothing feels the same I get so dizzy I can't think I dig down deep in down Until there's no way out I'm just so busy on the brink I'd like to think I make a difference As if indeed I ever could It was always up to you, girl And this I never understood I can't love you like I want to If it comes down to what I don't do And every chance to see the real you Oughta feel you slip away, is truth decay? I can't love you with my hands tied Walking barefoot down the landslide If I can't be there when you need me Do you read me when I say 'it's a truth decay'?
