The Truth

It's 3 A.M.
It's cold outside, you can't sleep
Is it from your conscience talking
To the skeletons you keep?

Every time you try to speak
Only craziness comes out
But she can't turn the other cheek
And you can't hide how it comes out

So when did you decide to embrace
What you hate to survive
'Cause that's not what got us here

It's 8 A.M. and still no sleep
But you don't care
I don't know why I keep on calling
Does it get us anywhere?

'Cause every time I try to speak
You never let my words come out
I can't turn the other cheek
And I can't help how this comes out

So when did you decide to embrace
What you hate to survive
'Cause that's not what got us here

Honestly, I don't know how you could see
Something you once saw in me
Just another ball of tears

Wonder if you ever lie awake in bed
And think about the things you said
Your dedication shows that you can't see
Your eyes are closed

And all the promises you made to me
They seem to fade and leave me
With this disappointment
That these words can never show

When your ride is over
And you're hanging by a thread
As your house of cards is falling
Just remember what I said

So when do you decide to embrace
You hate to survive
'Cause that's not what got us here

And honestly, I don't know how you could see
Something you once saw in me
Just another ball of tears
