Sad But True (May 23rd, 1991 Rough Mix)

Hey (Hey), I'm your life, I'm the one who takes you there

Hey (Hey), I'm your life, I'm the one who cares

They (They), they betray, I'm your only true friend now

They (They), they'll betray, I'm forever there

I'm your dream, make you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when you can't feel

Sad but true

I'm your dream, mind astray

I'm your eyes while you're away

I'm your pain while you repay

You know it's sad but true

Ooh, no-no

You (You), you're my mask, you're my cover, my shelter

You (You), you're my mask, you're the one who's blamed

Do (Do), do my work, do my dirty work, scapegoat

Do (Do), do my deeds for you're the one who's shamed

I'm your dream, make you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when you can't feel

Sad but true

I'm your dream, mind astray

I'm your eyes while you're away

I'm your pain while you repay

You know it's sad but true

Sad but true

I'm your dream

I'm your eyes

I'm your pain

I'm your dream (I'm your dream)

I'm your eyes (I'm your eyes)

I'm your pain (I'm your pain)

You know it's sad but true

Hate (Hate), I'm your hate, I'm your hate when you want love

Pay (Pay), pay the price, pay for nothing's fair

Hey (Hey), I'm your life, I'm the one who took you there

Hey (Hey), I'm your life, and I no longer care

I'm your dream, make you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when you can't feel

Sad but true

I'm your truth, telling lies

I'm your reason, alibis

I'm inside, open your eyes

I'm you

Sad but true
