Tell Me the Truth - Lapsley

Well, I’ve been taking things that I don’t want to take

Slamming other doors and feel it’s breaking me down

The feeling never lasts, I need to satiate

The feeling that I had before you took me right down

I ring you when I start to get a small high

Short amount of time before the birds fly by

The lighting in your room was always too low

We said our goodbyes before we said hello

In a small space, you changed me

In a crowded place, you isolated me

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Well you’ve been throwing shadows on a long flight

Just pulling my feet under, move my face from sight

The feeling always lingered past the comfortable stage

Make stories up in my head, you can question them now

I touch you in the dark for satisfaction

A slice of my sentimental attraction

The lighting in your room was always scarlet

Just tell me something right, babe, and I’ll believe it

In a small space, you changed me

In a crowded place, you isolated me

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

I’m numb to the pain, there’s no fire, there’s no burn

The house down

Blame the household

Feed the ego

When will these lies let me go?

I’m numb to the pain, there’s no fire, there’s no burn

The house down

Blame the household

Feed the ego

When will these lies let me go?

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess

Just tell me the truth, it’ll hurt less, I guess
