Dead Silent - The Truth lyrics

I saw you looking at her pictures
I saw you looking at the photo on your wall
You lied to everyone and said
You didn’t miss her
But the truth’s ready to slip with
A steady dose of alcohol
You can’t help that it’s sitting in the past
With the ghost of her voice creeping
In when you can’t sleep
When I’m sitting next to you and we laugh
I can see it in your eyes
That you really let it crash
We call it karma, call it what you want
She don’t even know why she would
Ever be the one you want
I know there’s more to the
Story that I can’t see
The only thing that I can be is understanding
I’m only looking out for your health, see?
And holding onto her isn’t healthy
Anything you needed, I’ll be there
But I’m never gonna let you hold it in
Till it’s too late to tell me

The truth just hurts so much
And the truth just hurts so much

You never imagined you would make
It to this day it never really hit until the
Moment that she walked away
Thought you had a grip, then you let it slip
Her thinking that was it
She quit following the script
What you told her
Doesn’t matter if it’s true
You had intentions that were
Good enough to prove what she needed to do
You were chasing other things
She was begging for you
Heavens knows she’ll never be a saint
You should’ve seen it coming when
You let her embrace it
And you can scratch all that
You want at the paint
But the memories, you can’t erase them
With a pen and a pad you take notes
Till the sadness within cannot be evoked
Till the last tear your sheets will soak
Till the fire of your passion
Is nothing but smoke

The truth just hurts so much
And the truth just hurts so much

Let it breathe, you need sleep
I know that you don’t want
To give up this easily
You’ve got pride, so you wage war
But this girl isn’t worth throwing
Your life away for
You’ve got so much ahead of you
Maybe no one else sees it
And I have to give credit to you
Cause without you my life is in pieces
We all miss the real you
And I bet you miss the life
That you were living back then
I don’t want you to tape your mouth shut
Cause it hurts when I find you’ve
Been hiding from your friends
This girl isn’t worth it
I guess it takes time just to figure it out
And if God isn’t healing your pain
Then I guess it’s up to me
To be casting it out
