《Both Sides of the Story》歌词

[00:00:00] Both Sides of the Story - Abacab

[00:00:15] Find yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of town

[00:00:22] Where death waits in the darkness

[00:00:24] With a weapon to cut some stranger down

[00:00:30] Sleeping with an empty bottle

[00:00:33] He's a sad and an empty hearted man

[00:00:37] All he needs is a job and a little respect

[00:00:40] So he can get out while he can

[00:00:45] We always need to hear both sides of the story

[00:00:55] Both sides of the story

[00:01:04] A neighborhood peace is shattered

[00:01:07] It's the middle of the night young faces hide in the shadows

[00:01:14] While they watch their mother and father fight

[00:01:18] He says she's been unfaithful

[00:01:21] She says her love for him has gone

[00:01:26] And the brother shrugs to his sister and says

[00:01:29] Looks like it's just us from now on

[00:01:34] We always need to hear both sides of the story

[00:01:39] We need to hear both sides of the story

[00:01:45] And the lights are all on the world is watching now

[00:01:53] People looking for truth we must not fail them now

[00:01:58] Be sure before we close our eyes

[00:02:03] Don't walk away from here till you hear both sides

[00:02:26] Here we are all gathered in what seems

[00:02:29] To be the center of the storm

[00:02:34] Neighbors once friendly now stand each side

[00:02:37] Of the line that has been drawn

[00:02:41] They've been fighting here for years

[00:02:44] But now there's killing on the streets

[00:02:48] While small coffins are lined up sadly

[00:02:52] Now united in defeat

[00:02:56] We always need to hear both sides of the story

[00:03:04] And the lights are all on the world is watching now

[00:03:12] People looking for truth we must not fail them now

[00:03:17] Be sure before we close our eyes

[00:03:22] Don't walk away from here till you see both sides

[00:03:45] White man turns the corner

[00:03:48] Finds himself within' a different world

[00:03:52] Ghetto kid grabs his shoulder

[00:03:56] Throws him up against the wall

[00:04:00] He says would you respect me

[00:04:03] If I didn't have this gun

[00:04:07] 'Cos without it I don't get it

[00:04:10] And that's why I carry one

[00:04:15] We always need to hear both sides of the story

[00:04:20] We always need to hear both sides of the story
