Truth Hurts Lyrics

you can take away the pictures
leave me staring at the wall
you disconnect the telephone
so i never hear you call
try to erase all the memories
of the things we used to do
if you could rip my heart out
i bet your would have wanted to
take away all my sadness, all the darkness
every bit of pain
take away all the bad words, though the truth hurts
we're better off this way
if you walk out of my life
leave me here with nothing more to say
just take it all away
just take it all away
truth hurts

you can say you never meant it
and take back what you gave to me
just pack up your possessions
and leave the stuff that i don't need
you can empty out the bookshelf
leave your keys at the door
don't forget to rip my heart out
cos i don't need it anymore
take it away, take it away
i don't need this drama anymore
take it away, take it away
this is not worth fighting for
take away all my sadness, all the darkness
every bit of pain
take away all the bad words, though the truth hurts
we're better off this way
if you walk out of my life
leave me here with nothing more to say
just take it all away
just take it all away
truth hurts

you can't leave me picking up the pieces that were
once my life
i don't know if we'll be able to make this right
don't blame yourself it's not as if we didn't try
if you're gonna walk away, i'm gonna be ok
someday
