The truth about love
comes at 3am
You wake up **** up
and you grab a pen
And you say to yourself
I'm gonna figure it out
I'm gonna crack that code
gonna break it break it down
I'm tired of all these questions
and now it's just annoying
'cause no one has the answer
So I guess it's up to me
to find the truth about love
as it comes and it goes
A strange fascination
with his lips and toes
Mornin' breath bedroom eyes
on a smilin' face
Sheet marks rug burn
and a sugar glaze
The shock and the awe
that can eat you raw
Is this the truth about love
I think it just may be perfect
You're the person
of my dreams
I never ever ever ever
been this happy
but now somethin'
has changed
And the truth about love
is it's all a lie
I thought you were the one
and I hate goodbyes
Oh you want the truth
The truth about love
is it's nasty and salty
It's the regret in the mornin'
It's the smellin' of armpits
It's wings and songs
and trees and birds
It's all the poetry
that you ever heard
Terror coup d'etat
Life line forget-me-nots
It's the hunt and the kill
The schemes and the plots
The truth about love is
it's blood and it's guts
Purebreds and mutts
Sandwiches without the crust
It takes your breath
'cause it leaves a scar
But those untouched
never got never got very far
It's rage and it's hate
and a sick twist of fate
And that's the truth about love
I think it just may be perfect
You're the person
of my dreams
I never ever ever ever
been this happy
and now somethin'
has changed
And the truth about love
is it's all a lie
I thought you were the one
and I hate goodbyes
Oh you can lose
your breath and
oh you can shoot a gun
And convinced you're
the only one
that's ever felt this way before
It hurts inside
The hurt within
and it folds together
pocket thin
And it's whispered by
the angels' lips
and it can turn you
into a son of a ***** man
The truth the truth
the truth about love is
Truth the truth
the truth about love is
I think it just may be perfect
You're the person
of my dreams
I never ever ever ever
been this happy
and now somethin'
has changed
And the truth about love
is it's all a lie
I thought you were the one
and I hate goodbyes
I think it just may be perfect
You're the person
of my dreams
I never ever ever ever
been this happy
and now somethin'
has changed
And the truth about love
is it's all a lie
I thought you were the one
and I hate goodbyes
