"The Ugly Truth" lyrics

"The Ugly Truth"

Bitter sweet memories and where I've come
The struggle and the great unknown
On the places I was told I'd go and go and grow

'Cause you can't beat down the beaten
And you can't break down what can't be broken
Can't twist a lie into the truth

Show me now
Tell me what am I to do (when all the world has let me down)?
Staring out
Through a window with a view (eyes blind to none)
Of the ugly truth

And suddenly I finally learn
Realize it's a complete absurd
And I don't wanna be a slave to all the thoughts that hold me down

'Cause you can't beat down the beaten
And you can't break down what can't be broken
Can't twist a lie into the truth

Show me now
Tell me what am I to do (when all the world has let me down)?
Staring out
Through a window with a view (eyes blind to none)
So life is hard, lonely too
Sometimes insane, what can I do?
I'm staring out at the world
Through a window with a view
Of the ugly truth
