Yes you should have seen her face
Straight out of Peyton Place
Pseudo movie star
Total disgrace
Beggin' on her hands and knees
Won't you just love me please
I've got my life to lead
Lead yours as wellBeautiful home
White picket fence
Fairytale
The pain starts When the Quaalude endsLearn to pacify
Then you justify
Never satisfied
The truth always hurtsWell I woke up in heavy sweat
The sheets stretched I was soaking wet
A light bulb in my sleep
Went off in my headTwo places at one time
Can't be done by mankind
I hate to say I'm feeling confinedFrom the top of the world to a sunken ship
No in between
Karma sure can be a frazzled tripLearn to testify
Can't be rectified
Ain't no lullaby
The truth always hurtsLearn to pacify
Learn to qualify A
lways mortified
The truth always hurts
Bet your assOne day you're king of the world
Indestructible T
hen you're knocked off your pedestalJust been crucified
Harmed and horrified
Ain't no alibi
The truth always hurtsTime to occupy
Simply no deny
Better say goodbye
The truth always hurtsLearn to pacify
They you justify
Never satisfied
The truth always hurtsThe story goes on and on and on
Somebody else will be a victim
The ends is here
It's a fact of life
The truth always hurts
