LYRICS:

The truth is that I never shook my shadow
And every day it's trying to trick me into doing battle
Calling out "faker" only get me rattled
Want to pull me back behind the fence with the cattle
Building your lenses
Digging your trenches
Put me on the front line
Leave me with a dumb mind
With no defenses
But your defenseless

If you can't stand to feel the pain then you are senseless
Since this
I've grown up some
Different kind of fighter
And when the darkness come let it inside you
Your darkness is shining
My darkness is shining
Have faith in myself
Truth

I've seen a million numbered doors on the horizon
Now which is the future you choosin' before you gone dying?
I'll tell you 'bout a secret I've been undermining
Every little lie in this world come from dividing
Say you're my lover, say you're my homie
Tilt my chin back, slit my throat, take a bath in my blood, get to know me
All out of my secrets
All my enemies are turning into my teachers
Because, lights blinding, no way dividing what's yours or mine when everything's shining
You darkness is shining, my darkness is shining
Have faith in ourselves
Truth

Yes, I'm only loving, only trying to only love
That's what I'm trying to do is only loving
Yes, I'm only loving, trying only loving, I swear to God
I'm only trying to do the loving
Yes, I'm only lonely, I've been missing all my feeling
Only loving, only loving
You say it ain't loving ain't loving my loving my loving
But I'm only loving, swear only loving, swear to God I'm only loving
Trying only loving, only loving, only loving, only loving, only loving
Yes, I'm only loving, swear only loving, swear to God I'm only loving, only loving
See, I'm only loving, loving, loving, loving, loving my love
But I'm only loving, loving, loving, loving the truth

Truth

[mixxbreedproductionz]

Guy Ritchie's The Covenant brought me here!!! Perfect credit song. Thank you Alex and Guy Ritchie!!!

[makkaschatsanddits]

This is a very spiritual song for those in the process of growing

[NothingButSilicone]

Guy Ritchie is one hell of a director. Never seen a movie of his that I didn’t love.

[Dezsike]

Breaking Bad S04E01 end scene. Dead Gail, crime scene investigation, Gale's notes found on table. Epic!!

[danifer]

The covenant end credits brought me here. Love the song. Can't get enough. Wish it was 20 minutes. Thanks man.

[ctrlshiftn]

Instantly fell in love with this song after hearing it in the credits of the Jake Gyllenhaal taliban movie. It reminds me very much of the song "It's Called Freefall".

[josuevillatoro]

Just when I thought The Covenant couldn't get better, they ended up with this diamond.

What a meaningful song!

[mleslie]

I am seriously so in love withy his song, the perfect whistle in the opening, the message, the everything. It's so perfect. It's all so perfect.
I'm going to be drinking to you Alexander, for being a fucking genius!!

[AuthorJamesDWood]

The Covenant movie had this track as its credit score. Amazing. Just like the movie, so good!

[katorihanako]

Just finished watching season 4 episode 1 and the song went right through my heart plus the lyrics match up with the episode.

[chrislambelho]

The Covenant brought me here. A bond, a pledge, a commitment.

[fraundakelmbrilpondaprost]

Careful and considerate how the bridge of the song features Alex swimming through an underwater passage- washing himself clean of guilt, but not his dirt- into a connection with a loved one, a bridge of its own sort, the two of them accepting of one another in spite of the grim that comes with who they are. An inspired and brilliant creative decision for a song equal in such merits.

[OEuKnowMe]

It kills me when people are insulted and whatnot because a popular show or something is the reason they heard the song. If anything you should be happier because the song is getting more recognition anyway. And the fact that you already knew the song means nothing. How would someone unknowing of the song and artist even find the fucking song. What they'd look up the genre? Even then the chances of them finding this one song is ridiculous. Good taste my ass tu heard it before someone else that's all.
