Lyrics

Truth Is

[Verse 1]

I don't wanna go

Where everybody knows your name

So I just stay at home

Mm, anymore these days

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause every time I leave the house

I hear somebody ask about you

And I just can't bring myself to tell the truth about it

So I tell a lie, mm

Say you're doin' pretty good

And things are goin' like they should

And when I get back home tonight

I'm gonna tell ya that they said to tell ya hi, mm-mm

[Chorus]

'Cause the truth is, the truth is

I don't wanna tell 'em

I don't wanna tell 'em what thе truth is

Oh, the truth is, the truth is

I don't wanna tell 'еm

I don't wanna tell 'em what the truth is

[Verse 2]

It's so much easier

They don't know that we're just friends

Than goin' down that road

And losin' you all over again

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause it's hard to live with knowin'

All the things I did and didn't do to keep you by my side

And I'm the reason for goodbye

And why you're gone

I just talk about the weather or whatever

Yeah, 'cause anything is better than discussin'

All the nothin' that we got goin' on

And that I'm barely hangin' on

[Chorus]

'Cause the truth is, the truth is

I don't wanna tell 'em

I don't wanna tell 'em what the truth is

Oh, the truth is, the truth is

I don't wanna tell 'em

I don't wanna tell 'em what the truth is

[Chorus]

But the truth is, the truth is

I don't wanna tell 'em

I don't wanna tell 'em what the truth is

And the truth is, the truth is

I don't wanna tell 'em

I don't wanna tell 'em what the truth is

(Every time I leave the house

I hear somebody ask about you

And I just can't bring myself to tell the truth about it

So I tell a lie)

I don't wanna tell 'em

I don't wanna tell 'em

(Say you're doin' pretty good

And things are goin' like they should

And when I get back home tonight

I'm gonna tell ya that they said to tell ya hi)

What the truth is
