XL Recordings - Tell Me the Truth lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, I've been taking things that I don't want to take Slamming other doors and feel it's breaking me down The feeling never lasts, I need to satiate The feeling that I had before you took me right down I ring you when I start to get a small high Short amount of time before the birds fly by The lighting in your room was always too low We said our goodbyes before we said hello [Pre-Chorus] In a small space, you changed me In a crowded place, you isolated me [Chorus] Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess [Verse 2] Well you've been throwing shadows on a long flight Just pulling my feet under, move my face from sight The feeling always lingered past the comfortable stage Make stories up in my head, you can question them now I touch you in the dark for satisfaction A slice of my sentimental attraction The lighting in your room was always scarlet Just tell me something right, babe, and I'll believe it [Pre-Chorus] In a small space, you changed me In a crowded place, you isolated me [Chorus] Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess [Bridge] I'm numb to the pain, there's no fire, there's no burn The house down Blame the household Feed the ego When will these lies let me go? I'm numb to the pain, there's no fire, there's no burn The house down Blame the household Feed the ego When will these lies let me go? [Chorus] Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess Just tell me the truth, it'll hurt less, I guess
