lyrics

You saw my shirt on the chair

You saw her slipper by the stairs

You touched my phone with your thumb

Then you said, bro, don’t be dumb

We sat by the fan at Kanda

Soba in the bowl, full of pepper

You looked at me like you knew

The door was open before noon

You said, I know you won’t like this

But truth is still truth, my brother

You rolled your eyes at my mouth

Then pointed straight to the cover

Tell me straight, tell me straight

Tell me straight, tell me straight

I need the bruise, not the bait

Tell me straight, tell me straight

I wore my pride like a chain

You pulled it off in the rain

At Osu, near the kiosk

You spoke while I stared at the cost

You said the signs were on the wall

My name was smaller than all

I laughed, then I checked my face

In the rearview by the place

You said, I know you won’t like this

But truth is still truth, my brother

You folded up your last line

And left it clean on the table

Tell me straight, tell me straight

Tell me straight, tell me straight

I need the bruise, not the bait

Tell me straight, tell me straight

If I twist it, I stay low

If you tell it, I can grow

Bring the cup, bring the salt

Say it clear, make me stop

Tell me straight, tell me straight

Tell me straight, tell me straight

I need the bruise, not the bait

Tell me straight, tell me straight
