[Verse 1]
Not a hostage
Not a scapegoat
Not a thing wrong
Except you're cutthroat
So, get your hands up
Before the boat sinks
'Cause this ain't one for all
Yeah, this is groupthink
[Pre-Chorus]
We got a ways to go
We need a stepping stone
I guess we're on our own
Ain't that a bitch, though?
We got a ways to go
We need a stepping stone
I guess we're on our own
Ain't that a bitch, though?
[Chorus]
Tell me the truth
Or tell me a lie
Tell me what I've gotta say
To get out of this room alive
Show me the answers
Or give me a clue
Thеre's not enough space
In thе miles between me and you
Oh, no, here we go
Here come the saints
Of violence and innuendo
So, tell me the truth
Are you really surprised?
You live in a world
Where empathy goes to die
[Verse 2]
Kill the rich kids
Shoot the sad boy
Stab the pretty girl
Go buy some new toys
Not a hostage
Not a scapegoat
Not a thing wrong
Except you're cutthroat
[Pre-Chorus]
We got a ways to go
We need a stepping stone
I guess we're on our own
Ain't that a bitch, though?
We got a ways to go
We need a stepping stone
I guess we're on our own
Ain't that a bitch, though?
[Chorus]
Tell me the truth
Or tell me a lie
Tell me what I've gotta say
To get out of this room alive
Show me the answers
Or give me a clue
There's not enough space
In the miles between me and you
Oh, no, here we go
Here come the saints
Of violence and innuendo
So, tell me the truth
Are you really surprised?
You live in a world
Where empathy goes to die
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Not a hostage, not a hostage
Not a hostage, not a scapegoat
Not a scapegoat, not a scapegoat
Tell the truth, tell the truth
[Chorus]
Tell me the truth
Or tell me a lie
Tell me what I've gotta say
To get out of this room alive
Show me the answers
Or give me a clue
There's not enough space
In the miles between me and you
Oh, no, here we go
Here come the saints
Of violence and innuendo
So, tell me the truth
Are you really surprised?
You live in a world
Where empathy goes to die
[Outro]
Tell the truth, tell the truth
Tell the truth, tell the truth

Brent Smith:
That song is about the media during the pandemic and watching what almost felt like some kind of horrific movie. I spent 28 weeks in California during the pandemic before I was able to leave. Every day, I would wake up in this hotel like, ‘This isn’t really happening. It’s all a dream....
