lyrics

I know that when you feel so strong, it gets so hard to see
The line between "truth" and "belief" gets awful fuckin' blurry
We pride ourselves on honesty, clear minds, and thinking straight
But when it's time to lay it out, then we exaggerate
I don't have to stretch the facts to prove my point of view
Straight talk is all I'll ever give to you
Straightedge is a part of me, too
In my skin, my blood, my mind
And I get nervous seein' it, but I don't get fuckin' blind
The sky won't fall down if you have a fuckin' drink
And acting like it will won't bring you closer to how I think
I don't have to stretch the facts to prove my point of view
Straight talk is all I'll ever give to you
Drugs and alcohol are so fucking lame
On so many levels, it's a losing game
Corrupt corporations, domestic violence
Alcohol's the leading cause of accidental death
It steals your time and money
It fucks with your health
I don't have to trump it up
The situation tells itself
Straight Talk!
I know that when you feel so strong, it gets so hard to see
The line between "truth" and "belief" gets awful fuckin' blurry
Straightedge is a part of me, too
In my skin, my blood, my mind
And I get nervous seein' it, but I don't get fuckin' blind
I don't have to stretch the facts to prove my point of view
Straight talk is all I'll ever give to you!
