The Truth Always Hurts

(album: Symbol Of Salvation - 1991)

Yes you should have seen her face
Straight out of Peyton Place
Pseudo movie star
Total disgrace
Begging on her hands and knees
Won't you just love me please
I've got my life to lead
Lead yours as well

Beautiful home
White picket fence
Fairytale
The pain starts When the Quaalude ends

Learn to pacify
Then you justify
Never satisfied
The truth always hurts

Well I woke up in heavy sweat
The sheets stretched I was soaking wet
A light bulb in my sleep
Went off in my head

Two places at one time
Can't be done by mankind
I hate to say I'm feeling confined

From the top of the world to a sunken ship
No in between
Karma sure can be a frazzled trip

Learn to testify
Can't be rectified
Ain't no lullaby
The truth always hurts

Learn to pacify
Learn to qualify A
Lways mortified
The truth always hurts
Bet your ass

One day you're king of the world
Indestructible T
Hen you're knocked off your pedestal

Just been crucified
Harmed and horrified
Ain't no alibi
The truth always hurts

Time to occupy
Simply no deny
Better say goodbye
The truth always hurts

Learn to pacify
They you justify
Never satisfied
The truth always hurts

The 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
