The Truth

Lyin' next to you,
Wishing I could disappear...
Let you fall asleep,
And vanish out into thin air...

It's the elephant in the room,
And we pretend that we don't see it.
It's the avalanche that looms above our heads.
And we don't believe it.

Tryin' to be perfect,
Tryin' not to let you down...
Honesty is honestly the hardest thing for me right now...
While the floors underneath our feet are crumbling,
The walls we built together tumblin'
I still stand here holdin' up the roof,
Cause it's easier than telling the truth.

I still keep your photographs,
I remember how we used to laugh.
I can keep on losin' sleep,
If you're okay with being torn in half.

It's the elephant in the room,
And we pretend that we don't see it.
It's an avalanche that looms above our heads,
But we don't believe it.

Tryin' to be perfect,
Tryin' not to let you down...
Honesty is honestly the hardest thing for me right now...
While the floors underneath our feet are crumblin'
The walls we built together tumblin'
I still stand here holdin' up the roof,
Cause it's easier than telling the truth.

Stop ignoring that our hearts are mourning,
And let the rain come in.
Stop pretending that it's not ending,
And let the end begin.

Oh yeah...

Tryin' to be perfect,
Tryin' not to let you down...
Honesty is honestly the hardest thing for me right now...
While the floors underneath our feet are crumblin'
The walls we built together tumblin'
I still stand here holdin' up the roof,
Cause it's easier than telling the truth.

It's easier than telling the truth...
