Tell It Like It Is Lyrics by Myles Kennedy

The Ides of March

2021

[Verse 1]
Another night, another play
Only marking time in a fool's parade
Tell me if you dare, was this all a big mistake?
Well then lay down, say what you gotta say
I'm sick and tired, I can't distill
This long, long ride, the endless drill
Never changed no mind by the story, you never will
No you won't
Just need a little time to let your head and heart grow still
[Chorus]
I won't sugarcoat it
Gonna lay it on the line
Gotta own it
And tell it like it is sometimes
Just lay it on the line
[Verse 2]
Testify and don't pretend
If you wanna take it back, well I won't condemn
Are you happy now?
Are you rеally better off my friend?
Baby, tеll the truth, was it really worth it in the end?
[Chorus]
And don't sugarcoat it
Just lay it on the line
Gotta own it
And tell it like it is sometimes
Just lay it on
Lay it on
Just lay it on the line
Just lay it on the line
[Verse 3]
Johnny, come lately, step aside
You had your fun, now say goodbye
Let the people take the wheel, it time to let the grown- ups drive
We ain't ever looking back, making up for losing time
[Chorus]
I won't sugarcoat it
Time to lay it on the line
Now we know it
Ain't wasting no more time
Gotta own it
And tell it like it is sometimes
Just lay it, lay it, lay it, lay it on the line
Just lay it on the line
Just lay it on the line
