Barricade the doors and lock the windows there's no chance of getting out today
A hand grenade with a pin pulled half way out
Less chance of burning in the shade
The thing we never think about the elephant in the room is out
So hide your life in the drawer before the devil comes to suck the soul from you
Paradises fantasies and revelations of the seas
You'd love to see my face the day Jesus comes riding white horses from the moon
But the truth hurts I know
And letting you down slow
Is cold as I could be
But respect for your dignity
Lets the true hurts unfold
Yeah the truth hurts I know
Half asleep in a prison cell with no beginning inspecting channels on repeat
I tried to weep but the tears are all dried up
Guilt mixes lumpy with relief
The thing we never think about the elephant in the room is out
So hide your life in the drawer before the devil comes to suck the soul from you
Paradises fantasies and revelations of the seas
Were the things you taught me true did you even get your second name in the month of June
The truth hurts I know
And letting you down
Is cold as I could be
But respect for your dignity
Lets the true hurts unfold
Yeah the truth hurts I know
The truth is you sow what you reap and you reap what you sow
