(VERSE 1)
Let down the swords tonight,
My body is up in flames,
On every person, in every light
I see you standing there
My kingdom is on fire,
I need to stand and face,
The dragon in your eyes,
No shield to cover me
(PRE-CHORUS)
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know that I need you
But I know, but I know but I know, but I know, it's a lie
And I’d do anything that you want me to do just to be with you
But I know, but I know but I know, but I know, it's a lie
(CHORUS)
Because I hate the way you talk to me
Because I hate the way you look at me
Because I hate the way you make me feel
Because I hate, hate, hate
La Vérité
La Vérité
(VERSE 2) (FR)
C'est le cheval de Troie
L'invasion de mon être
Le plus grand des combats
Mon coeur contre ma tête
Et s'il N’en tenait qu'à moi
Je retournerais en arrière
Pour effacer mes pas
Pour éviter l'enfer
(PRE-CHORUS)
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know that I need you
But I know, but I know but I know, but I know, it's a lie
And I’d do anything that you want me to do just to be with you
But I know, but I know but I know, but I know, it's a lie
(CHORUS)
Because I hate the way you talk to me
Because I hate the way you look at me
Because I hate the way you make me feel
Because I hate, hate, hate
La Vérité
La Vérité
(BRIDGE)
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know that I need you
But I know, but I know but I know, but I know, it's a lie
And I’d do anything that you want me to do just to be with you
But I know, but I know but I know, but I know, it's a lie
(CHORUS)
(x2)
Because I hate the way you talk to me
Because I hate the way you look at me
Because I hate the way you make me feel
Because I hate, hate, hate
La Vérité
La Vérité
(END VERSE)
Let down the swords tonight,
My body is up in flames,
On every person, in every light
I see you standing there
